Endeavour Adventure - Thursday, 27 October 2011

veski is inviting course advisors and students interested in science to take part in the 2011 Endeavour Adventure.

The Endeavour Adventure is an initiative of Endeavour; an annual program of events presented by The Melbourne School of Engineering at The University of Melbourne. Led by a team of engineering students, Endeavour aims to promote engineering excellence, collaboration and innovation to a wide audience.

veski is proud to give school students the opportunity to visit The University of Melbourne’s Parkville campus. They will take part in a range of activities designed to inspire interest in engineering and technology-related fields as a study option and career path.

The Adventure program is best suited to students in years 10 and 11. Activities will include:

  • Tour of Endeavour 2011 Design Expo: Students will have the opportunity to view the projects on display, and interact with final-year engineering students.
  • Robotics workshop: Students will also be able to take part in a hands-on robotics workshop, where they will get the chance to program a real Lego robot in one of The Melbourne School of Engineering’s Design Studios!
  • “Engineer your Future” seminars: Motivating guest speakers including academics, and students past and present talk about the interesting work they do and why they became an engineer.

Date, time and cost:

Endeavour Adventure will be held on Thursday 27 October, from 9:30am-2:30pm. Lunch will be provided.

This is a free program, proudly supported by Endeavour 2011, veski, and other sponsors.
