Engineering Experience

Friday 21 June

The Experience Engineering day, hosted by the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), celebrated women’s contributions to the engineering workforce and introduced us to diverse career options within the sector.

Throughout the event, discussions on design thinking and project-based learning were led by a panel of engineers and graduates, and we were able to take part in workshops that allowed us to explore various engineering disciplines and their positive societal impact. A particular highlight of the day was the aerospace engineering activity, where we applied innovative skills in the construction of a model plane, gaining deeper insights into the expansive field of Aeronautical engineering. The STEM-focused activities enhanced our understanding of the engineering profession whilst growing our skills. Overall, the day provided a valuable opportunity for exploring career options beyond school. Everyone enjoyed the activities and the university experience was enriching!
