This is a fantastic opportunity for a select group of year 9 students to experience, absolutely free of charge, an in-depth introduction to engineering. The classes are led by practising engineers from industry and academia.

They will combine theory with practical hands-on activities. We aim to challenge the brightest of the bright, open their eyes to the world of engineering and encourage them to pursue STEM subjects beyond their GCSE years.

We require pupils in Year 9 in 2015/16 who are academically able and judged to have potential and interest in the classes. They should in the top few percent of the population in terms of ability. This need not necessarily be measured by examination success but a keen interest in technical project work, science and maths is required.

Please note that some students may have been invited to Ri Maths Masterclasses and Computer Science Masterclasses. They can attend only one so please check that they have not been nominated for any other series of masterclasses.  More information available here - PDF 574.2 KB
