World Science Festival Brisbane - STEM Career Showdown
STEM Career Showdown is a high-energy event where STEM professionals go head-to-head to prove why their career is the most exciting, impactful and future-shaping path of all.
Contestants battle through fast-paced pitches, big ideas, real-world challenges and crowd-voted showdowns to win the ultimate prize: the audience’s support.
Designed for high school students, STEM Showdown turns career exploration into an interactive experience: part game show, part debate, part inspiration session. With a dynamic host big-stage energy and a diverse STEM talent, students don’t just hear about careers in science, technology, engineering and maths, they experience the passion, personality and possibilities behind them.
