To address the United Kingdom’s shortage of engineers, we developed the Full Speed Ahead Program and revised the Inspire Engineering Mentoring Program for the London Transport Museum; the former is a curriculum composed of ten modular lessons and teaches year 10 and 11 students about engineering in an interactive, hands-on environment while the latter focuses on engineering education and professional development for year 12 students. Both programs encourage students to pursue science and engineering by exploring these fields.
