About Engineering for All
Engineering for All established access and equal opportunity into engineering, raising awareness of engineering and a wider understanding of its importance in today’s world. It inspired groups with lower aspiration, participation and representation in engineering and sustainable technology such as Wind Energy, Robotics, Precision Engineering, Aeronautical, Electronics, Mechanical, Composites, Marine etc.
Targeting females, younger people, care leavers and those from disadvantaged backgrounds, the project inspired and promoted confidence in progressing into engineering focussed learning and work, creating opportunities for disadvantaged backgrounds across the Isle of Wight.
Activities included events on National Women in Engineering day and School programme developing including projects -such as Robotwars, Introduction to Cobots, projects-open to all schools but reserved places for young people from disadvantaged areas.
