STEM Festivals & Events - There are lots of really exciting and engaging STEM festivals that take place during the year.
TY Opportunities - Transition Year is a great time to try out different STEM subjects and to experience what it would be like to work in science, technology, engineering and maths jobs. Smart Futures is coordinated and managed by Science Foundation Ireland, in partnership with over 200+ organisations from research and academia, as well as partners such as Engineers Ireland, BioPharma Ireland, the Royal Society of Chemistry, ICT Ireland, the Irish Medical Devices Association (IMDA), the Institute of Physics, the American Chamber of Commerce and many other stakeholder groups. This website aims to provides resources to students, teachers, guidance counsellors and parents, in order to stimulate an interest in STEM subjects in secondary school and at third level. Smart Futures is a government-industry programme promoting science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) careers to students in Ireland, highlighting opportunities in sectors such as pharma chemical, medical devices, information and communications technology (ICT) and energy. The future success of the Ireland’s economy will require increased numbers of skilled workers with Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) qualifications. Research shows that there is clear need to do more to inspire young people to study STEM subjects in order to take advantage of job opportunities in these fields. Employment in STEM-related sectors is also expected to rise by around 6.5% between now and 2025. According to the European Commission, demand for STEM professionals and associate professionals is expected to grow by around 8% between now and 2025, much higher than the average 3% growth forecast for all occupations. STEM workers are driving Ireland's innovation and competitiveness by generating new ideas, new companies, new industries and attracting multinational investment. Study of STEM subjects opens doors to a range of exciting jobs, from the most complex research and development and leadership positions to production, repair, marketing, sales and other jobs that require varying levels of knowledge of science or technology.

If you have any questions about the STEM challenge or would like to sign your school up and receive student and teacher packs, please get in touch with and use the subject line ‘STEM Challenge Enquiries’ when contacting us. Schools from the following regions are participating in the Challenge: The Challenge will target Good Career Guidance Gatsby Benchmarks 4 and 5 and will develop key skills in the Skills Building Partnership Framework, including problem solving, creativity, teamwork and writing skills. Participating students will receive certificates and careers resources about STEM in Government, while top entries will receive prizes such as Amazon vouchers and site visits! Students will submit a report or poster to be judged by a panel of cross-government civil servants, including policy experts. This year, we are asking teams of four to six secondary school students to explore their vision of a carbon neutral day in 2050, focusing on creative scientific solutions to one of the following sustainability-related topics: The Challenge has been designed to align with the Government’s Levelling Up agenda and ultimately reduce the disparity in STEM uptake across the country. Running for its second year, the Challenge encourages secondary school students to act as policy makers tackling Net Zero, aiming to communicate the real-world relevance of STEM and to demonstrate that STEM careers are about much more than just working in a lab. The GSE Profession, in collaboration with Civil Service Fast Streamers, is proud to announce the launch of the STEM Challenge 2023. A schools outreach initiative aiming to inspire secondary school students to get involved in science and policy making
