Engineering & Physical Sciences
Explore the many sides of engineering and technology, from designing and building physical systems to computer science, AI and digital innovation.
The ProEd Approach
Students start by exploring the wider world of engineering and technology, from design and prototyping to coding and computational thinking. From there, they go deeper into their chosen area through hands-on projects and real-world, industry-led experiences.
School of Engineering & Physical Sciences
What Students Will Experience
Explore the Fundamentals
Explore the principles behind engineering and technology through design, coding, problem-solving and experimentation, learning how physical and digital systems are built and improved.
Experience the Profession
Work on practical challenges with engineers and technologists, from building and testing prototypes to coding, AI, digital fabrication and industry experiences.
Put Learning into Practice
Take on a Field Project, develop ideas with professional guidance and present the final work to a panel of external industry professionals for feedback.
ProEd Field Project
Build the Case
Students bring together what they’ve learned through an engineering or technology-based Field Project. This could mean investigating an engineering challenge and developing a proposed solution, or exploring a question in computer science or AI and developing a technical approach. With professional guidance, students develop their project before presenting it to a panel of external industry professionals for feedback.

What Our Students & Families Say
“I noticeably gained independence and, after meeting many inspired people, I had started to believe in myself more and I gained motivation in general. I made plenty of like-minded friends from all over the world, whom I am still in contact with of course. I would say the ProEd is an experience that divides life into before and after, and I am deeply grateful that I was able to forget any worries for the two weeks and be in a motivational surrounding.”
Sora
“This was an incredibly valuable experience for me. I had the opportunity to explore Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence and programming in much greater depth. Sessions on Python, Data Analysis, Computer Vision, NLP and Large Language Models introduced me to areas I hadn’t explored before and gave me a clearer idea of what I might want to pursue in the future.”
Kofi
“I enjoyed the lectures that delved into technical knowledge, allowing me to gain a deeper understanding of engineering. The day spent in the industry was very helpful in learning how an engine works and operates, and everything was incredibly interesting and intriguing.”
