C Program
The C program is the pre-cursor to NAMIG's suite of programs and provides opportunities for younger students to be introduced to Advanced Manufacturing through assistance with tours, talks, simple projects and linkage with a participating secondary school.
Engineers Without Borders
During 2009 NAMIG, in conjunction with UniSA, introduced a successful pilot project which involved Year 9 students from 5 C2C schools participating in the Engineers Without Borders (EWB) project. Teams were introduced to the challenge of working with third world communities to develop engineering solutions for water, sanitation, food, energy, shelter and transportation.
EWB works in partnership with developing communities both within Australia and overseas, assisting them to gain access to the knowledge, resources and appropriate technologies they need to improve their livelihoods.
EWB focuses on developing the capacity of the local technical sector through small scale, grassroots engineering programs to ensure that innovative, appropriate and sustainable solutions to issues that impede development are locally generated and driven.
