About this Event
Every physio exercise, climate model, smartphone, and risk assessment relies on physics principles.
A fundamental understanding of physics equips students with powerful analytical and problem-solving skills that are valued far beyond science.
This day invites Science Teachers and Career Practitioners to
- Explore why physics is essential for a wide range of unexpected careers
- Gain concrete examples you can share with students and parents
- Rethink physics as a versatile foundation rather than a niche subject
- Hear from Alumni how physics has helped them in their (non-physics) career
