Engineering Summer School for Girls - Book Your Place Now

ICLThis non-residential summer school at Imperial College London is open to Year 9 girls and will promote the breadth of engineering disciplines available when you study science and maths subjects.

The closing date for applications is 5 March 2019 so there's no time to lose. Find out more, including how to apply.


Students will work in groups within each engineering themed session as they explore some of the following engineering disciplines available at Imperial, through interactive projects and activities.

  • Aeronautical Engineering
  • Bio-engineering
  • Chemical Engineering
  • Civil Engineering
  • Computing
  • Design Engineering
  • Earth Sciences Engineering
  • Electrical and Electronic Engineering
  • Materials Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering

Supported by undergraduate mentors, students will tackle challenges across engineering utilising their knowledge of maths, physics, chemistry and biology to learn how engineers use their scientific knowledge to develop solutions to real world problems.

The course is non-residential and will give students an insight into university life. Students will be part of a small cohort and will have the opportunity to build links with fellow participants through the summer school. At the end of the week there will be a showcase where each group will present an engineering concept they learned during the week to their peers, leaders, family, friends and invited guests.

Closing date for applications: 5 March 2019. Find out more, including how to apply.
