Speaker Series

My STEMM Future Speaker Series

Our Speaker Series is designed to help students work towards their ‘Shaping your Future’ strand of their Youth STEMM Award. Each month, we invite a different speaker to discuss their job and career journey, and students get involved through interactive polls and by asking the speaker questions throughout.

We cover a range of job roles and topics in order to highlight diversity in jobs, routes and people in STEMM.
