Description
Girls into Electronics is a series of non-residential events that are being hosted by leading universities across the UK this summer, including University of Nottingham. The events are ideal for girls in Year 11, 12 or 13, thinking about studying Electronics, Computer Science or Engineering. Participants will get the chance to hear from female staff and students at the university, and from female graduates working in the Electronics industry, have a tour of our facilities, and also get an introduction to microcontrollers. They can keep the microcontroller kit and get on-line support to complete a range of practical experiments.

If you are an individual student interested in attending, please use the link here to find the relevant event, and click through to reserve your place. The events are being organised by the United Kingdom Electronics Skills Foundation (UKESF), and are sponsored by Apple with the exception of a small booking fee of £20 per student. UKESF aim for their courses to be accessible to all, so if the booking fee is a barrier, or if you need support for travel costs, please get in touch before booking, via info@ukesf.org.

If you are a teacher interested in organising a trip to this event, please use this form to book places. If you aren’t in a position to book yet, you can register your interest here and when you’re ready to secure places, the booking form can be completed. Your place at the event is not reserved until you have completed the booking form and been invoiced. However, if places are becoming limited for the event, UKESF will contact you. A discount on the booking fee can be arranged if you would like to bring a group of 5 or more students.

Tickets are limited and we expect there to be a high demand for places.
