A full-day engineering experience with QUT and industry for female students.
Supporting and inspiring young women in high school to explore the world of engineering, QUT partners with organisations all over Southeast Queensland to deliver the Power of Engineering. This year, we are proud to announce that Rio Tinto is a major sponsor of this program.
We originally offered this opportunity to years 7-9 to align with the critical decision-making time frame while in high school and to empower young women to consider the various career pathways connected to engineering. We now offer it for female students in years 7-12.
In 2024, some weeks for Power of Engineering will be themed. Depending on the location of your school, your students will be engaged in either of the following:
- Tour and activity at QUT Gardens point and industry site visit.
- Engineering-related activity delivered at your school and industry site visit.
In 2024, we are offering Power of Engineering once per term to allow more schools to engage in the event. Below, please click on the term you would like to register your students for:
