The Research Project

Einstein-First Project Outline

The Einstein-First initiative inspires all Year 3 to Year 10 students to:

• learn about and embrace modern science and technology to help them understand, appreciate and address personal and global challenges as informed future citizens
• embrace science, technology and mathematics subjects to study in year 11 and 12, and carry this forward into their further education and training post-school
• recognise their own potential future in diverse careers in innovation, technology, science and future sustainable industries to help secure their place in that workforce.

The initiative is led by The University of Western Australia in collaboration with Curtin University and ANU.  It has funding from the Australian Research Council plus additional support from the Western Australian government, the Independent Schools Association of WA, The Gravity Discovery Centre and the Science Teacher’s Association of WA.
