Ten Years of NUSTEM
This academic year, NUSTEM is celebrating ten years of outreach, engagement, research and practice.
Join us, our partners, colleagues and friends at Northumbria University’s campus in Newcastle on 9th July 2025, for an afternoon of sharing and reflection on our journey so far, and thoughts on the path ahead.
There will be cake.
