Connect your company to future STEM professionals


Schools engagement is a fulfilling way for scientists and professionals to give back to the community.

I’m a Scientist provides a high quality, effective, and efficient way for your staff to engage with schools.

  • Develop a culture of outreach and engagement within your staff
  • Introduce school students to new career paths
  • Reach your EDI goals and engage underserved school students
  • Go global with international outreach opportunities

Students need to see people like themselves in well-paid professional roles in order to aspire to them.

In I’m a Scientist, students are introduced to people in a wide range of careers, some of which they may have never encountered before or considered as aligning with their own interests.


I’m a Scientist helps you achieve your EDI goals.

Two-thirds of participating school students are from schools with above average rates of Free School Meal provision and/or more than 30 minutes drive from their nearest university.

The project encourages all to participate and 89% of students in a class are actively engaged in the project; asking questions, entering into conversation, voting for their favourites.

Actively engages 89% of students

I’m a Scientist helps you engage the students that are currently missing out.

The activity is text-based and delivered online.

This means you can provide the same opportunity to all your staff whether they live next-door to a school or in the Scottish Highlands, or even if they are based overseas.
