Information for School Students and Parents
The Outreach Office at Imperial College London encourages students of all ages to participate in science activities to promote STEM subjects. In recent years this work has been supported and expanded through an operational partnership link with Exscitec – an organisation which develops programmes of activity for promotion of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths education. The following links will provide more information on what courses are running throughout the year at Imperial.

Work Experience
Unfortunately the Outreach department is unable to arrange work experience placements at Imperial College. If you are in year 12 and living in London or Hampshire you may apply to the Nuffield Bursary Scheme for 4-6 week placements during July and August.
The Imperial Outreach and Exscitec Partnership
In recent years the work of Imperial Outreach has been supported and expanded through an operational partnership link with Exscitec - an organisation which develops programmes of activity for promotion of STEM education. Exscitec delivers project management for Summer Schools and Outreach projects, thus enhancing the quality of the courses and the number of beneficiaries participating. Pivotal to the Exscitec contribution is its detailed knowledge of Imperial College and practices relating to setup and delivery of educational events.
