Every year, the EES provides young people with an insight into the world of science, engineering and technology. This invaluable experience enables students to make a more informed career decision through a better understanding of the opportunities available in science, engineering and technology.
A professional engineer from a link company/organisation, works with a team of 4 students and their teacher on a real engineering problem, over a period of 6 months.
The EES is a prestigious work experience scheme. Students get in-depth, hands on experience of engineering, design and research at a professional level, and gain experience of problem solving, team working, presentation skills and project management.
