STEM Programme

Enrichment Overview

The STEM enrichment is an opportunity for students to further develop their skills and passion for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. Students will work on a variety of engineering-based projects set by their teacher and the Big Bang. It will give students the chance to explore areas of STEM that are not on the specifications of their subjects. The skills you will develop through this project work would be highly regarded by universities and employers in STEM subjects. Students will submit their completed projects to The Big Bang competition.
This enrichment is open to all Science and Maths students who are interested in engineering, and we particularly welcome female students as they are underrepresented in STEM careers.

You will enrich and broaden your experiences of STEM, outside of your subject specification. You will develop research, critical thinking and practical skills. By completing the project, you will be able to demonstrate you can work independently and are self-motivated.
