Encouraging STEM through hydraulics

The Victorian Indigenous Engineering Winter School gave a hands-on experience to 30 year 10, 11 and 12 Indigenous students from across Australia.
During the two-hour session students learned about hydraulics and assembled a prefabricated take-home hydraulic claw. The concept was to develop something that would be interesting to make and allow students to be immersed in engineering design and fabrication prior to entering a university. QinetiQ graduate Galiana Kartal-Palazyan, together with the team, ran the event over three days.
Learning to assemble the hydraulic claw was also the focus of the Girl Power in Engineering workshop for 40 female high school students, which was developed to influence gender parity in engineering and IT disciplines for girls from Australia with an interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
The Creator Space team was thrilled to receive positive feedback for the event from the University of Melbourne’s Recruitment Coordinator Future Students Team - Architecture, Building and Planning, Engineering and Information Technology.
