 > Brody Radford
:: Year 3 Electrical & Electronic Engineering, AUT 

In school I knew I wanted to work in science or technology, but wasn't sure which line of work to pursue.

Mechanical Engineering? Biology? Computer programming? They all sounded just as interesting as each other.

Going on the Sci-Tech Experience helped clarify my options though, giving me a taste of what it's like working in these professions.

It was fun, creative and involving, with lots of practical activities. I got to visit some excellent science and technology educators, rub shoulders with inspirational lecturers and tutors passionate about the subjects they taught.

It was also a good chance to meet some like-minded people.

The student mentors looked after everyone and helped out with the practical activities, sharing their advice and experience of their own.

Take it from someone who knows, if you want to make an informed choice about going on to study after leaving school you'll need all the knowledge and experience you can get your teeth into. The Sci-Tech Experience was a great place to start.
