Starting in April 2009, GET AHEAD WITH STEM! will deliver 160 STEM days - half or one day in-school sessions - and 8 residential courses over a two year period. Each STEM day will introduce 50 pupils to the challenges of a hands-on design-and-make project, to increase their understanding of the importance of STEM subjects and develop transferable skills such as teamwork, creativity, problem solving and time management. Each residential course will give 100 pupils the opportunity to gain an even deeper insight into engineering plus a taste of university life.
