Engineering Education Scheme Wales
EESW run numerous activities across Wales, providing students with the opportunity to gain practical experience working with industries, businesses, and higher education. Activities include designing, making, and racing a model F1 car, working with companies on real engineering problems, experiencing life as an engineering undergraduate at university, and investigating, designing, and modelling an innovative solution to an environmental problem.
EESW aims to show industry just how talented the next wave of engineers and technicians are by bringing students and industry together for the benefit of all those involved and the future prosperity of the Welsh economy.
EESW is part-funded by the Welsh Government’s Education Directorate.
