Smart Futures: free school visits

Engineering and technology offer diverse and exciting career opportunities. Would you like a local engineer to visit your school to talk to students about these dynamic, growing sectors?

Every year the STEPS team at Engineers Ireland arranges hundreds of free school visits, linking up volunteer engineers with local schools, and equipping them with an engaging presentation for Junior Cycle or Senior Cycle students.

Register for a Smart Futures visit now and we will do our best to match your school with a local engineer. Go to STEPS.ie/post-primary-school-visit.

Get a school visit by an SFI researcher

Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) strongly encourages outreach by SFI funded researchers to advance public understanding of science & engineering.

You can arrange a free visit to your primary or secondary school by a principal investigator, PhD student or other members of their research teams.

They can give talks on their own research, on more general science and engineering topics, or on careers in science and engineering. Find out how to arrange a talk, and view a full list of researchers and their talk titles suitable for all age groups.
