University of Lincoln Engineering and Physical Sciences Insight Course
Create a free account to applyHands-on projects can have you modelling chaotic systems, programming a robotic buggy or visualising medical imaging data, while linking maths, physics, engineering and computing. You’ll also explore specialist university labs and hear introductions to ideas such as interstellar travel and infinity.
The University of Lincoln’s Insight into University course is centred on engineering and physical sciences, giving students the chance to explore how Mathematics, Physics, Engineering and Computer Science connect in practice. It is designed for those who are thinking about university and want to experience a STEM-focused environment before choosing a degree path.
Participants take part in hands-on interdisciplinary projects that build computing and engineering skills while also introducing some abstract mathematics and theoretical physics. Example activities may include modelling chaotic systems, programming a robotic buggy, visualising medical imaging data, and exploring ideas such as interstellar travel and infinity.
The course also includes lecture-style introductions to relevant topics and practical sessions in specialist physics, engineering and computing laboratories. It is a mixed residential course for 30 students and is aimed at students with a strong interest in STEM, especially those considering Mathematics, Physics or Computer Science at A level.
