A student sponsored by the Rotary Club of Glenferrie has been accepted to attend the 2023 National Youth Science Forum (NYSF) in Canberra. Sebastien Krueger, a student at Swinburne Senior Secondary College will be packing his bags this January to travel to the nation's capital for the twelve-day program designed to give students a broader understanding of the diverse study and career options available in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), and to encourage continued studies in these fields.
Rotary in Australia is a founding partner in NYSF. Other major partners are Lockheed Martin, the CSIRO, CSL Limited and the Australian Government. Participating universities include Monash University, the University of Melbourne, Griffith University, and the University of New South Wales.No doubt we will welcome Sebastian to a club meeting in 2023 to hear of his experiences at NYSF and of the impact it has had on his career ambitions. Good luck Sebastian, and well done!
