Dear all -

Apologies for the cross posting.  Swinburne University of Technology is 
hosting an all-day event for Year 10 and 11 students interested in ICT 
and Engineering.  The program consists of four main sessions:

"GR8 Expectations - Changing the world with telecommunications" looks at 
the history of telecommunications from Morse Code to 4G.

"An Inconvenient Network - Sustaining the Internet" unveils the hidden 
costs associated with the internet and how we can make the 
telecommunications process more sustainable.

"VOIP & Online Games Workshop" where student participate in hands-on 
activities in our labs.

"World Of Intelligent Robots" gives students an appreciation of robotics 
and mechatronics by allowing them to program and operate model robots.

The following website contains more information about the program and
