🌟Happy World STEAM Day! 🌟

To celebrate we are highlighting some of our In2science STEAM mentors and their words of wisdom for the upcoming generation πŸ₯³
Dale is completing a PhD in Chemistry @RMIT! πŸ§ͺπŸ§‘β€πŸ”¬

In the chemistry field, @DaleAOsborne mentions when he gets stuck on an experiment, he takes a break or switches tasks, then comes back with a fresh mind to solve the problem.

Dale would like to tell future STEAM students πŸ‘‡ Graphic with an image of Dale Osborne, with the text β€œPhD
Georgia is a science student @UniMelb majoring in computing and software systems πŸ’»

Georgia believes the technology field is rewarding as it allows us to solve problems and help connect people (especially during the lockdowns)!

Check out Georgias advice for people in STEAM πŸ‘‡ Graphic with an image of Georgia Lewis, with the text β€œBac
Sourav is an Engineering student completing his Honours Year @latrobe βš™οΈπŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ“πŸ‘·. Sourav finds Engineering rewarding as you can transform an idea into its physical equivalent.

Check out Sourav’s advice to the upcoming STEAM generation πŸ‘‡ Graphic with an image of Sourav Salhan, with the text β€œBac
Geordie is an Arts student studying a double major in Psychology & Geography @UniMelb! πŸ§ πŸ—ΊοΈ

Geordie's experience at university has taught him that 'am I learning?' is a better question to ask yourself than 'am I happy with my grades?'.

Read what Geordie finds rewarding in STEAM
A few weeks ago we met Rashmikka a Maths Major @swinburne through #TakeoverThursday ! πŸ“πŸ“š

Rashmikka mentioned she finds her degree rewarding as STEAM has no limits, and that's what makes it great!

Here is some advice from Rashmikka to people in STEAM πŸ‘‡
🌟We are so thankful to all of our STEAM mentors that are showing the future generation how important all subjects are in our daily life, degrees, and careers! 🌟

Check out this great quote by @CatrionaNR who perfectly sums up the need for STEAM πŸ₯³πŸ‘‡

We are stocked to have In2science mentor Annelisa (@RigoniStella) from @RMIT take over our Twitter for #TakeoverThursday!
Annelisa is a PhD candidate in Chemistry, who is going to talk about some of the things they have learnt during their past 8 years of study in STEM at RMIT!
First up – my very first few years at @RMIT! Completing 2 degrees in Applied Science & Nanotechnology, I learnt so much about how the world around us works on the smaller scale – and also how to make cool compounds in the chemistry labs! A variety of purple, yellow, blue and white coloured chemica
During these first four years completing these degreed, I also had the opportunity to tour the Australian Synchrotron @ANSTO, which I learnt is currently used to carry out crucial research in Australia! A several students residing within a room containing several

This year we rolled out the Mentor Leaders Program. In2science mentors were paired with STEM Professional Mentors to facilitate career discussions and filter it down to secondary school students!

Tomorrow we celebrate the mentor's commitment and achievements at @Toyota_Aus πŸŽ‰πŸ§΅
In2science mentors and their STEM Professional mentors will meet, network and reflect on their involvement in the program.

We then invite all guests to engage in a panel discussion exploring 'STEM graduate pathways - navigating challenges & creating opportunities'.
We are excited to be joined by 4 panel members from various fields in STEM.

First up we have Catherine Hart, a senior sustainability & environmental consultant πŸŒ±πŸ‘·β€β™€οΈ@Toyota_Aus. Cat will be talking about how the industry has changed since she started working.

For #TakeoverThursday we have Stefany George, an In2science mentor and Biomed student at @latrobe!

Ever considered studying medicine? Hear from Stefany about her experience and the pathway to get there!πŸ‘©β€βš•οΈβš•οΈ

Watch the video: bit.ly/Stefanybio or read about it here πŸ‘‡
Stefany is in her 2nd year of a Bachelor in Biomedicine @latrobe and aspires to be a doctor!

To do this, Stefany must complete a Doctorate of Medicine (MD), but let's break down the steps to get there!
The first course you would complete is an undergraduate course in biomedicine. This involves completing lectures, quizzes, exams and assignments that you need to do well in to score a high Grade-Point Average (GPA).

A high GPA will improve your chances of getting into medicine

🌟In2science mentor, Yanghan Wan, is studying a Bachelor of Science, majoring in Civil Systems @UniMelb 🌟

For today's #TakeoverThursday we are highlighting Yanghan's article that was recently featured in the University of Melbourne news: facebook.com/28418238495050…
Yanghan moved from New Zealand to @UniMelb to pursue a Bachelor of Science as this course allowed him to pick a variety of subjects from different disciplines.

Yanghan felt @UniMelb was a great choice he was surrounded by people from different backgrounds, that wanted to learn!
Yanghan was inspired to pursue a career in STEM as he was always curious, often asking his parents 'why?'.

He really wanted to know how purely theoretical knowledge could be applied in the real world, for example, engineering with the application of maths and physics πŸ’»βš™οΈ

Today we are thrilled to have @CatrionaNR (aka the singing scientist) from @TheDohertyInst @UniMelbMDHS share what she's excited about for the future of STEM!

In fact, she's an In2science mentor because she wants to support young scientists who will one day take the reins. Catriona in a school science lab holding a beaker. Catriona
One thing @CatrionaNR loves seeing is more creativity being mashed with science. #SciArt is an amazing space and provides great ways to explore and engage more people in STEM - from songs & comedies to images & nerdy tees. She sums up it up in @museumsvictoria's 10s challenge:
More and more #WomeninSTEM are taking a stand πŸ‘©β€πŸ”¬ Women are poorly represented in the STEMM workforce, comprising <30% of researchers worldwide.

But there are programs that lift #WomeninSTEMM up, and they are banding together to create change.

🌟Ready for another #TakeoverThursday? 🌟

Today we have @LilyKenchEvans who is a student in @LIMSLTU @latrobe who will be walking us through a day in the life of a Chemistry Honours student πŸ§ͺ @ltu_researchers

This post is in celebration of @nationalmoleday (23/10) πŸ₯³
As most of my day is spent in the lab, I start with desk work such as checking data, especially if an analysis has run overnight.

While you prepare your food for the day (πŸ₯£), I am creating a to-do list & preparing my chemicals for the day's reactions πŸ§‘β€πŸ”¬πŸ”¬ 4 glass tubes used in chemistry Image of two glass vessels behind a glass window in a fumeho
As a reaction usually runs overnight, I then purify one from the previous day, as there may be a by-product I need to remove.

I can visualize what is in the reaction mixture through dots on a TLC plate, as seen below 🀠.
