UCL Engineering: Spring into STEM video lectures

From manufacturing to medicine, STEM (science technology, engineering and mathematics) is fundamental to understanding and exploring the world around us.

At UCL, our STEM research uncovers the complexities of how we live and how we shape what the future might look like.

Following the popularity of Spring into STEM over the past four years, this relaunch will continue to bring our series to live audiences at our UCL East Campus. Each evening of Spring Into STEM 2.0 will feature two TED-style talks by experts, offering interdisciplinary perspectives on the hottest topics in STEM. Our academic hosts will highlight and share their cutting-edge knowledge in inspirational formats, perfect for inquisitive young minds and those interested in STEM research.

Whether you're a school teacher or supervisor wanting to fan the flame of curiosity in your class or community group by booking them in, a young scientist aged 15 to 25 or a just science enthusiast on the hunt for deeper insight and to share your passion with others, seize your chance and head to the booking form. Sessions take place once per month from November 2024 to July 2025 — we're looking forward to meeting you there!
