University of Salford

Welcome to Science&Engineering STEM Saturday Club here at The University of Salford. We are a team looking to welcome young people eager to engage with science, technology, engineering and mathematics, making learning accessible to all. This year our focus is on animal conservation in the wake of climate change, focusing on ways we can support our local wildlife as well as more endangered species. Our focus will range from working with Salford rangers in our local parks, to learning about endangered species and conservation work.

As part of the Saturday Club, you will have the opportunity to meet and work with university experts in zoology, animal cognition and the biodiversity of our planet, as well as current university students. As part of our sessions, there will be the opportunity to work on wildlife photography and journalism, hands on conservation work and even looking at how zoos work and why they are important.

Alongside our sessions, those involved will be able to access advice and support on completing The Duke of Edinburgh Award (your Club Tutor Charlotte recently finished her gold award), Kings Guide/Scout Award, and the John Muir award. Get in touch today to apply for your place! We look forward to meeting you soon.

Club members will also take part in free national events including the Summer Show, where Saturday Clubs nationwide exhibit their work in a public exhibition, and Masterclasses with leading industry professionals.
