The IET, in collaboration with businesses across the UK, are hosting ‘Engineering Open House Days’ to show families and students what it’s really like to work as an engineer by offering special, behind-the-scenes access to demonstrate how creative, exciting and innovative a career in engineering could be.

Renishaw is delighted to be opening the doors of our Innovation Centre to students and families for this event. There will be a range of activities to cater for families with children aged from 7 upwards and for students, we will be offering information about our career’s opportunities and an insight into the types of roles available in engineering.

You’ll get a chance to:

• Talk to some of our graduates and apprentices
• Build rocket racers
• Try our energy bike
• Make a magnetic top chaser
• Meet GROMITRONIC and learn about how it was made
• Watch our interactive science shows

And much more!

The event is open from 1pm – 5.30pm with last entry at 4pm, so please turn up anytime between 1pm – 4pm, we are hoping for people to arrive throughout the afternoon to avoid congestion and queues. It is an exhibition style event with different activities to cater to different ages and we’d expect your visit to last 1 to 1.5 hours, we will be issuing wristbands on arrival to indicate when you arrived and may ask you leave after you’ve had sufficient time for your visit, when we are approaching maximum capacity, to allow people arriving later in to the venue.

Please note that this event is only suitable for children aged over 7 and all adults must be accompanied by a child.
