Our Meet the Scientist directory showcases some of the huge variety of careers that involve science.

Working across a variety of organisations, we have highlight people from many fields and professions to show how versatile the application of scientific skills can be. We have compiled their career journeys into a directory to make it easy for young people to discover the sorts of jobs and professions that could be in their future.

We hope to show the breadth of career choices that use science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) in some way across a range of technical and creative professions. This resource can support students in understanding how science-based knowledge and skills can be applied beyond their education.

The directory’s collection of profiles and short films, aimed at young people aged 11 to 18, are available to view and share. They bring to life how studying science-based subjects can lead to rewarding and exciting professions.
