Ever wondered what it's really like to be a scientist, engineer or mathematician?  The STEM Partnership Support Team has commissioned the help of Brady Haran from the BBC to produce short ‘day in the life’ videos of real life STEM professionals in the region. 

Hiten Mistry from Bombardier, Derby, shows us a typical ‘day in the life’ of his role as a Systems Engineer.

We hope you enjoy it! 

Watch out… more 'day in the life' videos coming soon.

We are currently busy planning for the next STEM Student Journalist Workshop.  This workshop sets to be interactive, with hands-on activity led workshops including video journalism and top tips for interview/report writing.

We are currently in search of schools and partners to join us for the October workshop in Northampton, the workshop is open to all schools, colleges and universities within the East Midlands. 

Please help us to recruit new schools and partners by informing your networks and colleagues about the event.

Partners and Schools can register for the workshop here.

The East Midlands STEM Student Journalist Workshop took place at The University of Lincoln last Wednesday.  The event was a great success, and saw enthusiastic students leave ready to start reporting. 

The workshops consisted of:- 

Video Journalism, Brady Haran

Top tips for reporters, Louise Third 

Students from across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire attended. After the event, student reporter Rob Wells wrote an article for The Linc (The University of Lincoln's Newspaper) and a student from Da Vinci School in Derby commented on Brady's work on his You Tube site... 

"I'm a student that went to the Lincoln Uni STEM project...  I personally have never been a lover of science but these videos have opened up my eyes. Thank you so much :)."
