2022 IEEE Ambassador meets college students and parents in the park

IEEE STEM Ambassador meets college students and parents in Waterview Park 2022 IEEE PreU STEM Event: IEEE STEM Ambassador A/Professor Nurul Sarkar met college students and parents in Waterview Park (Auckland, New Zealand) to have a mentoring session. The event was held on Monday 31st January 2022. The discussion began with a light lunch and finished with Soccer play. We had seven senior college students (mostly Year 11 and 12) and five parents. We talked about the IEEE STEM program and asked each student about their future career in turn. It is interesting to note that some students are keen to study Engineering and Technology after completing high school. Parents are also happy to see their childrens’ Engineering career direction. Finally, we talked about sporting interests and played soccer (students versus parents). Both students and parents enjoyed the event.
