Indigenous engineering engagement
The Faculty of Engineering is committed to creating an environment where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and staff feel culturally safe and supported to thrive.
Our programs support Indigenous students at every stage, from high school graduates to those advancing their careers. We focus on enhancing intuitive thinking, creativity, and technical skills. Participants will connect with peers and mentors, gain practical experience, and explore diverse career paths in engineering.
