What is IAESS?
The Indigenous Australian Engineering Summer School (IAESS) is an annual event, established 14 years ago by Engineering Aid Australia (a non-profit organisation).
It is a five-day live-in Summer School, featuring a combination of activities that gives high school students in Years 11 and 12 a taste of engineering as a university course and career.
The objective of IAESS is to provide a challenging environment for Indigenous students to discover the benefits of the Engineering profession, to provide a forum for students to meet engineering role models, and to gain insights into the excitement and opportunities engineering can provide to our communities.
IAESS was hosted by the University of NSW in 2010 and 2011. For information on the 2012 program, please contact Engineering Aid Australia.
