Enter this fantastic competition and you could win a much sought after place at this year’s Space School UK, a 6 or 8 day residential Space Summer School hosted by the University of Leicester – Closing date 10th June 2008.
The competition is being held as part of the Space Academy programme.
Space Academy is a partnership between the National Space Centre, the University of Leicester, University of Nottingham, Science Learning Centre East Midlands, STEMNET and emda.
Space Academy provides education programmes, summer space schools, road- shows and conferences, built around schools’ curricula in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) using space as the inspirational hook. It is especially aimed at students from 11-19 years of age, and their teachers, in the East Midlands and beyond, encouraging and supporting them to consider the benefits and challenges of careers in these fields. It will draw on the skills and reputations of Universities in the region, which are international leaders in space-related subjects, and employers who need scientists and engineers.
