Monday 16th Oct– 2:00-2:45pm
Education after school can be challenging. Taking the next step in education to learn more about yourself as an individual and be in charge of your own learning can be difficult. Gisela will talk about her time in college and studying engineering at university and key life lessons that she has learnt along the way.
Friday 20th Oct – 2:00 – 2:45pm
Professor Nira Chamberlain OBE is a distinguished mathematician and advocate for the importance of studying mathematics. With a passion for promoting diversity in higher education, he has been a prominent voice during Black History Month, inspiring countless students to pursue STEM careers.
