SUMMARY:STEM careers event at Oxted School
DESCRIPTION:Bob Forsyth is a Reader in Space Physics at Imperial College Lo
 ndon. His research focuses on how the Sun influences the Earth’s enviro
 nment through the solar wind\, a field known as Space Weather. He currentl
 y acts as the Admissions Tutor for the Physics Department.\nBob was invite
 d to attend the STEM careers event at Oxted School. Over 20 scientists\, a
 dmissions tutors and ambassadors of science attended the event which was a
 imed at Year 9 students. Some sixth form students also attended the event.
 \nStudents were put in to small groups and had chance to speak to around 1
 0 ambassadors to try to guess their job title. Ambassadors were asked to t
 ake props with them to help the students guess the sort of work they do. B
 ob’s props included a Cubesat frame\, a miniature magnetometer and a mov
 ie running on his laptop showing the dynamic solar atmosphere\, and many s
 tudents correctly guessed that he was a space physicist. \nStudents were 
 marked for how accurately they had guessed the ambassadors job titles and 
 a winning team was announced. The eventual winning group correctly asked B
 ob if he worked on the solar wind and coronal mass ejections.\nFollowing t
 he competition\, the visitors were invited to give a brief presentation ab
 out their work and what they most enjoyed about their job. Students had th
 e chance to go back to speak to the ambassadors to ask them more about the
 ir work.\nThe students thoroughly enjoyed the event and one parent said: 
 “I just wanted to let you know that my daughter came back full of praise
  for Friday’s event”.
