The National Youth Science Forum is a 12-day program for Year 11 students who are thinking about a career in science, engineering or technology. Three separate sessions of the fully residential program are hosted in January each year by the Australian National University in Canberra and by Curtin University and the University of Western Australia in Perth.
Students are introduced to research and researchers, encouraging excellence in all their undertakings and helping them to develop their communication and interpersonal skills.
