As the British Science Week draws to a close, we hope we were able to break the perhaps unconscious bias of what a scientist looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liz, Amy and Fiona are just three examples of what a STEM career could look like. There is so much variety in STEM disciplines and pathways into the field. We could never list them all! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re interested in learning more about STEM careers, please have a look at Academy9 events<\/a>. The events cover disciplines such as engineering, ecology, geology, town planning and many more. They also give young people the chance to talk to \u2018real-life\u2019 professionals and ask them questions about their interests and careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you feel encouraged by reading about our events then please contact us<\/a> if you would like further information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
