Students participated in a water sanitisation workshop, where mock teams purchased tools to clean water as best as they could with their prescribed budget. The three-day program included many highlights that reflect our interdisciplinary approach to engineering at ANU, with activities facilitated by the ANU MakerSpace and Engineers Without Borders. The first 2023 cohort brought together nine students from Years 11 and 12 across Australia to take part in sessions offering insights into the field of engineering and university study. “We’ve designed a program that reflects the diversity of our interdisciplinary approach to education and research, that spans traditional disciplinary boundaries in areas such as renewable energy, the hydrogen economy, materials, robotics, mechatronics, and information and signal processing redefining the art of the possible in aerospace, energy, environmental, and autonomous systems.” “We are very excited to welcome students to the ANU this winter, to explore the discipline of engineering via our particular focus of systems engineering,” said Professor Chris Kellett, Director of the School of Engineering. These traditions are ongoing and critical to finding new technological and systems engineering solutions for our future. ![]() The mid-year initiative builds upon the foundations of the National Indigenous Summer School, with a focus on innovation, discovery, and the contributions of Indigenous technical, cultural, ecological and scientific knowledge. ![]() The inaugural National Indigenous Engineering Winter School was held from 2-6 July thanks to the ANU School of Engineering and its Bandalang Studio, the ANU Tjabal Indigenous Higher Education Centre, and generous support from the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. This Winter, Indigenous high school students from around the country gathered in our bushland capital to visit The Australian National University (ANU), discover the possibilities of engineering as a discipline, and experience university life. ![]()
