An event every day that begins at 9:00 am, repeating until Friday 21 March, 2025
The Science and Engineering Challenge is designed to inspire year 9-10 students to consider future STEM careers by involving them in a series of fun and engaging science and engineering-based activities that would not be available in a school classroom.
These activities themselves involve a wide range STEM challenges including building model bridges, planning electrical supply grids, and even building functional catapults.
This community-based program commenced in Newcastle in 2001 and continues with the continued strong partnership between The University of Newcastle’s Faculties of Science, Engineering and Built Environment, and Rotary International’s District 9660 Rotary Clubs as community partners from Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Lower Hunter, Port Stephens and Dubbo areas.
