EDUCATION: Experience Education in Action (Session 1 and 2)
In this Education session, you’ll jump into a mix of hands on activities that bring learning to life. Working in groups, you’ll take on challenges like a STEM activity, role play real classroom scenarios, and put your problem solving skills to the test in an escape room challenge. It’s a fun, interactive way to experience what studying Education is really like and to explore whether teaching and learning could be the right path for you.

ENGINEERING: Earthquake engineering and smart sensors (Session 1 and 2)
This session has two jam-packed engineering workshops that will show you the important role that engineering plays in everyday life.
Earthquake Engineering: In this hands-on challenge, you become engineers by designing and building earthquake resistant structures.
Smart Sensor workshop: This workshop starts with real-world smart sensor applications in the human healthcare domain, and follows through to look at brain monitoring technologies.

FILM AND TELEVISION: Lights, Camera, Create! (Session 1 and 2)
You will take part in a hands on film workshop where you will create short films using cameras and sound equipment, working from pre prepared scripts. You will also head into the TV studio to participate in practical workshops focused on producing a television show.
In each session, the main group will be split into two smaller groups. One group will complete the film workshop while the other works in the TV studio, then the groups will swap so everyone gets to experience both activities.

GEOSPATIAL TECHNOLOGY: Where could drones, satellites and geospatial technology take you? (Session 2)
What if your future career could involve using drones, satellites, maps and data to understand the world from above? In this session, you will explore how geospatial technology is used to solve real-world problems across agriculture, mining, cities, water resources, environmental monitoring, natural hazards, climate change and remote field locations such as Antarctica, the Himalayas and volcanoes. The session is designed for students who are curious about technology, the environment, exploration, data, maps or science, and who may not yet realise that geospatial technology can lead to interesting career pathways across many different industries.

HUMANITIES AND COMMUNICATION: Mixing it with Industry – launch your career (Session 1)
