During the second week of the September school holidays, I attended QUT’s annual STEM Summit.

It was a four-day experience designed to encourage high-achieving students to pursue a career in the STEM fields. Throughout the summit, I was treated like a QUT undergraduate student, receiving engaging lectures from industry professionals as well as professors from the university.

The program is tailored to an individual’s interests and gives valuable insight into life as a university student and the future careers to which each degree can lead. I cannot recommend the STEM Summit enough and would encourage any student interested in pursuing a career in any STEM field to apply, it was a truly valuable experience.
