Inspiring future generations through STEM

Our approach to STEM engagement isn’t just about reaching large numbers; it’s about creating inclusive opportunities that empower everyone. One of our primary goals is to inspire more girls to explore careers in STEM and the maritime industry, breaking down traditional gender barriers and paving the way for a more diverse workforce.

The power of STEM outreach

Our STEM outreach initiatives are designed to highlight the incredible possibilities that a career in STEM offers. Through hands-on experiences and educational programmes, we provide students and young professionals with a deeper understanding of how STEM drives global progress and addresses real-world challenges.

Our impact at a glance

Over the past financial year, we’ve made great strides in our outreach efforts:

• 7 STEM Events: We hosted seven engaging events to make STEM accessible, interactive, and fun.
• 10 Work Experience Placements: Ten students gained invaluable hands-on experience, connecting classroom knowledge with real-world STEM applications.
• Collaboration with 12 Schools: We partnered with twelve schools to bring STEM to life in classrooms and inspire a love for these subjects.
• 33 BMT STEM Ambassadors: Over thirty of our team members dedicated their time and expertise to engaging with the community through STEM activities.
• BRLSI Exhibition: Our participation in the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution exhibition attracted more than 1,500 visitors, showcasing the diverse and exciting opportunities available in STEM careers.

Expanding Our Reach: New Scientist Live

This year, we expanded our national impact by participating in New Scientist Live in London, UK.

This high-profile event provided us with a unique platform to demonstrate the exciting opportunities in STEM, particularly within the business and maritime sectors.

Engaging with a national audience has allowed us to inspire a broader demographic and strengthen our efforts to ignite a passion for STEM among young people.
