Free STEM competition: Primary Engineer and Secondary Engineer Leaders Award South of England 2017

"If you were an engineer, what would you do?".

The Primary Engineer and Secondary Engineer Leaders Award - South of England 2017 is open for entries.

To answer the question “If you were an engineer, what would you do?”, your pupils will need to interview engineers about what it means to be an engineer, find a problem, invent a solution, draw it, explain it and send it in.

Add a ‘Pitch Letter’ to Mechanical Engineering students at The University of Southampton explaining why their invention should be made and they may just choose to build it.

One winning design will be made by the team and all shortlisted designs will be displayed at the University of Southampton as part of the university Engineering Design Show where the winners will receive their awards.

If your school would like to be part of this extraordinary event, please contact info@leadersaward.com for more information, go to the Leaders Award website and signup to our newsletter, follow us on Twitter via @leadersaward and use #leadersaward17 or do all three.

Step-by-step information is available here (PDF, 1.2 MB).

Deadline for entries: 29 March 2017.
Awards event for winners: Thursday 15 June 2017
Public exhibition of shortlisted designs: Friday 16 and Saturday 17 June 2017
