Outreach Photo Exhibition 2009
3 - 11 June 2009
Blyth Gallery, level 5 Sherfield Building South Kensington
This year’s Outreach photo exhibition highlights the College’s Outreach activities over the last year, from summer schools and tutoring schemes to volunteering projects and open days.
Imperial has been actively involved in schools’ mentoring and tutoring programmes for over 30 years. Each year over 200 undergraduate and postgraduate students volunteer to take part in the Outreach Office’s schemes to provide local state primary and secondary schools with positive role models for STEM and Higher Education.
The longest running scheme is the Pimlico Connection, which places undergraduates in partner schools as classroom assistants and mentors.
The Outreach Office aims to encourage the most able students to apply to Imperial for undergraduate study, raise aspirations among school students to consider applying to higher education and inspire interest in studying science, engineering and medicine. Activities are open to both staff and students.
