Engineering study trips

Engineering is most powerful when experienced. Our engineering trips take students into factories, research universities and innovation centres where machines, vehicles and cities are designed and built, helping them explore future engineering career pathways.

On the trip

What students explore

  • Automotive engineering at BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche

    Students explore leading centres of engineering in Munich and Stuttgart, home to some of the world's most iconic automotive brands.

  • Technical University of Munich

    A visit to one of Europe's leading technical universities introduces students to engineering study pathways.

  • Robotics labs and drone innovation centres

    In Tokyo, students explore cutting-edge technology at The University of Tokyo, robotics labs and drone innovation centres.

  • Aerospace Museum and the Concorde

    In Paris, learners encounter historic and modern engineering marvels, from the Eiffel Tower to the legendary Concorde.

More ways to learn

  • Coding Olympiads & robotics competitions

    Global challenges that test students' ability to solve real-world problems through code, logic and robotic design.

Learning outcomes

What students gain

Students will be able to:

  • Explain how an engineering concept moves from lab research to a manufactured product, using what they've seen at BMW, Mercedes-Benz or Porsche
  • Describe the difference between mechanical, automotive and robotics engineering as practised, not just as subjects on a syllabus
  • Connect a specific university engineering pathway (such as the Technical University of Munich or the University of Tokyo) to their own further study options
  • Build a stronger, more specific case for their own engineering career direction
