ENTRY TO COMPETITION NOW CLOSED
What do I have to do?
Easy choose any career you find interesting maybe you know someone working in that area, or some amazing career you can imagine yourself following in years to come. Do some research find out what the work is really like, and what you need to study to get a chance to get the job.
Next, choose whether Science or Mathematics are important for the work (just about all careers need some science or mathematics!). Choose one or the other, and tell us just how important and relevant it is for the job. Then enter the competition based on your choice Mathematics or Science (there are two competitions really but you can only enter one this year!)
Finally, once you have all your information together, you have to create either a large poster (A1 sized thats just under 3ft x 2ft) or an equivalent powerpoint slide and present your findings. This will be displayed publically at a SciFest exhibition. A panel of judges will determine who will get the amazing prizes.
