Aimed at instilling in young people an interest in applied science and technology, it presents technical problems which stretch 바카라사이트 imagination and challenge teachers in ways which would not normally be possible within 바카라사이트 constraints of a school timetable.

A three-way co-operation between 바카라사이트 university, and industry and schools in 바카라사이트 region, it is based on a course which includes hands-on project work on a real engineering problem, team work, oral presentation, video recording and 바카라사이트 use of foreign language skills for students across an age range of nine to 19.
