Tuesday 6 August: Engineering for Speed

With Rob Bennett, uncover the engineering and scientific concepts around the fastest vehicles at Coventry Transport Museum and find out how we got there. Challenge your engineering skills and enjoy the process of designing, constructing, testing and improving your own fast vehicle (model).

Tuesday 20 August: Engineering for Safety

"Going fast is optional, stopping is compulsory” (Andy Green)

Explore the development of safety features through our collection and get hands on with objects from our collection to figure out mechanisms. This workshop will explore how an understanding of physical forces and material science supported safety features and innovation of vehicles. Theory will become practice with a hands-on maker and testing session to conclude the day.

Tuesday 27 August: Engineering for the Future

Join Rob Bennett to explore our collections through his eyes, learning along the way what it takes to be an engineer of the future. Map out incredible Coventry Transport Museum STEM innovations through time and find out how these have shaped the world we live in now. Then, have a go at creating your own STEM innovation
