BeScience STEM works with young people globally to provide a more contemporary approach to understanding and applying STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) subjects to their daily lives.

Our mission is to promote a positive change on the misinterpretation of STEM in the local community. After the phenomenal STEMsocial programmes, we are back with our premier Chemistry Hackathon Series in Leicester between October 2024 to January 2025, but we need your help.

We will be hosting eight one-day hackathons in secondary schools across Leicestershire, focusing on solving chemistry-related challenges
 

Role: Mentors will guide and support a group of students throughout the hackathon day, offering insights and advice as they work through their project.

Commitment: 1 day on-site in Leicester, between November 2024 and January 2025 

Why You'll Love It: 

you will mentor students, inspire them to apply, explore and deepen their understanding and passion for chemistry concepts and careers in a hands-on and interactive setting.
