The UK has a high demand for scientist and engineers, but suffers from stereotypical perceptions of these subjects. SUSTAIN is helping to inform young people about the diverse range of careers on offer within these sectors.

The SUSTAIN Steel project recently held its Inaugural Engagement Event at The Royal Society in London on 4th December 2019. SUSTAIN is a £35M Future Manufacturing Research Hub, supported by £10M of EPSRC funds, as well as by Universities, Trade Bodies, RTO’s and Businesses over 7 years to support the UK steel industry. The Grand Challenges the project addresses are “Carbon Neutral Iron and Steelmaking” and “Smart Steel Processing”.
