Meet the future you!

Could your students explore outer space, protect the environment, design apps or improve our health and well-being? In engineering and tech, the options are endless. And more available than they might think.

The Meet the future you quiz shows students how their skills, interests and passions, can lead to an exciting job in the future. Jobs that they might not have considered or thought they were even capable of.

Multiple-choice questions about very disparate things cleverly group the respondents into distinct groups connected with engineering. These exciting categories are represented by diverse real-life engineers showing loads of ideas of career paths the students could follow. Young people taking the quiz have a high chance of seeing someone who represents them.
