Careers and education

Schools

Pharma Special Interest Group members contribute to educational activities and some are willing to give simple presentations to interested school audiences, for example at careers events.

Keith Plumb, chair of IChemE's Pharma Special Interest Group, makes new friends at a 'Meet the Pharmaceutical Engineers' event in Manchester, UK, 20 March 2010.

Contact Special Interest Groups with your requirements and we will endeavour to find a suitable local speaker, perhaps in support of a whynotchemeng activity.
