You get to speak to lots of people who are working within the specialisation, and I just think that its really valuable to be here.I didnt realise how fully technological everything was, I thought it was all a bit old fashioned, but now Ive actually seen it, its opened my eyes to see how advanced it all is and how its going to continue to advance in the future.Im currently studying triple science and considering my future options for A Level. I think today has really solidified the maths element and made it more appealing, really showing how it will be useful to a new generation.The Commanding Officer, HMS Sultan, Captain Jo Deakin, OBE said: Today is a fantastic celebration of STEM and Naval engineering. It is a hugely significant milestone in Sultans strategy to engage and enthuse young people about STEM. Im incredibly proud of the Sultan team who Ive been to STEM days before wherehave delivered a brilliant day of STEM for theyve just been talked at for a lot of it andour local schools.its so nice that they get the opportunities to engage with things and its nice that theyveIm passionate about engineering. It is also been given the freedom to spend moresuch an exciting profession and developing or less time within a section. at an incredible pace. There are so many opportunities for people to jump into I think whats really important about todaysuch as automation, cyber technology, is that opportunity for the students get touncrewed vehicles operating above on and see science in action. Often what they learnbelow the sea, advanced materials, battery about at school is delivered in isolation andtechnology, synthetic fuels, and sustainable they dont get to see that application. Todaysolutions. As we highlight how technology they get to see current and novel things likecontinues to evolve, including our own VR, mixed reality, nuclear science, robotics,future platforms such as the Type 26 Frigate and thats so important as the curriculumand Dreadnought submarines, we are also cant always seem relevant and thatsable to showcase those precise motor what we want to give to students when(hands-on) and haptic skills of our engineers encouraging them to learn. that technology cant replace.'
