Sutton Trust - Pathways to Engineering

Overview:

Pathways to Engineering

The Pathways to Engineering programmes are run here at Cardiff University in partnership with the Sutton Trust, a charity championing social mobility.

What is Pathways?

Participants on our pathways programme have the opportunity to:

• Complete work experience with a local or national company – think barristers chambers and leading engineering firms!
• Visit campus and take part in exclusive academic workshops with academics from Cardiff University
• Attend a National Conference residential during the school holidays
• Access Sutton Trust Online – a fantastic online resource with tailored webinars and events!
• Meet current university students and hear the real story
• Meet like-minded peers and make friends
• So much more – all for free!

 What do participants gain?

• A network of university staff, industry professionals and peers.
• Experiences for CV, personal statements and interviews
• Any participant that completes one of the Pathways programmes will be eligible for a contextual offer. Find out more here.
• Information and guidance on applying to and attending university
• Skill development
• There is no cost to participants to take part in the programme.

Who can apply?

Applications are now open! Participants can apply here.

Students must be in year 12, attend (and have always attended) a state school and live within a 90-minute commute to Cardiff University.

We then look at a range of other criteria and generally, the more criteria a participant meets, the more likely they are to get a place. You can find out more here.

Applications will close on Monday 4th November.
