Schools
Get involved in Engineers Week and Win!
Engineers Week is an opportunity for primary and post primary schools to learn more about engineering. There are several ways to get involved.
See what organisations are hosting events in your area and for the relevant booking details. Events will be added to the website until mid February.
Host a school event
All schools are invited to host Engineers Week activities in their own school.
Ideas on how to do this
If your school holds an activity, let the STEPS team know what it is by registering it as an event on www.engineersweek.ie.
All schools that register an event will be placed into a separate prize draw to win a prize for the school. This draw will also take place on 7th March 2012.
