It’s no secret that historically fewer women have taken up STEM subjects such as maths, physics and engineering - but former Miss England and Miss World Europe Jessica Gagen has made it her mission to inspire more young girls to pursue a career in science.
Hear how she juggles her own career as an aerospace engineer with her work as a pageant queen, why she’s keen to show young girls they can do it all, and how she’s hoping to become the first beauty queen to make it to space!
Emily’s super seed spreader - the Germinator - is our prototype of the week. We hear from Tim Woolman from the University of Southampton who’s been working on the idea for the If You Were An Engineer competition.
And thanks to young Tommy for sharing his engineering idea with us.
