Worthing College Collaboration
GBE takes pride in wanting to drive and inspire a future generation of engineers.
That’s why last year we teamed up with Worthing College to ensure students have access to a wealth of future opportunities. From this, GBE sponsored Worthing College’s electronics lab by providing essential equipment, such as, wire cutters, cabling & PIC microcontroller chips. As well as offering an inside route to students for summer internships, work experience and apprenticeship opportunities.
We are now currently working with a small group of enthusiastic STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) students to design a score board for their rugby pitch. The GBE group is happily supporting Worthing College by funding and supplying expertise to help lead the students through the design.
There will be a cross collaboration through all the GBE group; GBE will help guide the electronics and mechanical design, GBP helping with the input power supply, GBL helping with the software and firmware to control the scoreboard and Wildtrax who will be producing and manufacturing the final design.
The key reason behind this collaboration is to expose students to industry standard practices as well as working alongside electronic and mechanical engineers. We are proud to be teamed up with our local college, Worthing College, and look forward to seeing what these enthusiastic students create.
