Thank you to Roisin Nash and the team GMIT (Official) who developed this workshop on #microplastics as part of the #scienceweek and #galwayscience Festival.

Great advice - in particular..................help teenagers open their eyes to the vast choice of career paths and opportunities available to them in the STEM and associated life sciences sector. This includes college open days and career events. #stem #sfi #nuig #gmit

It can be difficult to imagine what a career in Software Engineering is like as previous generations did not have the option. Read here about how interesting it can be and how everyday will be a different experience. #STEM #nuigalway #gmit

Mr Higgins paid tribute to the founder of the exhibition, Dr Tony Scott, who in 1965 recognised that science begins with curiosity among young people and their great sense of wonder. Best of luck to all the students taking part in the 54th BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition
