Education and engagement - Inspiring the next generation

BLOODHOUND SSC provides us with a once in a lifetime opportunity to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers. The BLOODHOUND Education Programme will be available to all pupils from primary and secondary schools, and to students in further and higher education. Alongside the education programme will be a series of activities outside the school environment, which will engage more broadly with society.

How do schools, colleges, families - and other groups - become involved

To join the Bloodhound Education Programme, you first need to register your organisation. This will then enable you to download our education ideas and get you started.

Why do we need a BLOODHOUND Education Programme?
In the UK, and many of the developed countries worldwide, there is a shortage of scientists, engineers and mathematicians and we therefore urgently need our young people to be motivated to enjoy and study science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) subjects at school and then at university. The BLOODHOUND Project is endeavouring to be the catalyst through which young people will acquire the skills and develop innovative talents that will enable them to overcome the challenges we face on a global scale.

Higher Education
The BLOODHOUND Project offers a unique opportunity to provide university level engineering and technology students with access to real design challenges and test data as the project develops. BLOODHOUND@University is run by a group of academics from the University of the West of England, (UWE), Swansea University, University of Southampton and also has input from the EPSRC.
