The Impact of Science and Engineering Ambassadors in Schools

“The Ambassadors are individuals from a wide variety of STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) backgrounds. They offer their time and expertise to help schools inspire young people and to act as invaluable role models to students. Increasingly we see evidence that the real-life stories and experiences which Ambassadors share with students is what stimulate interest and generate inquiry amongst their audience” (SETNET Eastern Brochure 2006.
