  • Robinson Brothers Host A Visit For Cheltenham College Students To Provide An Insight Into Chemical Manufacturing

Robinson Brothers host a visit for Cheltenham College students to provide an insight into chemical manufacturing

Robinson Brothers recently hosted a visit for the students of Cheltenham College.

Arranged by Dr James Copeland-Jordan, Head of Chemistry at Cheltenham College, 16-18 year old students had an opportunity to take a look at chemical manufacturing in-action. This included a tour of the Pilot Plant and large-scale manufacturing plants.

This visit was a chance for these young students, with a particular interest in pursuing a Chemical Engineering and Physical Sciences degree, to understand how chemistry and chemical engineering is applied in the real world. This visit also gave the students an opportunity to speak with professionals working at Robinson Brothers to comprehend what a career in manufacturing can entail; whether it being a Pilot Plant Technician or Chemical Engineer. Engineering roles are no longer stereotyped to be a male job. With awareness and the like of Women in STEM campaigns, there are now more females in engineering and manufacturing roles.

The students also got the chance to appreciate the Apprenticeship schemes that are available in industry. Robinson Brothers currently supports Apprenticeships in Engineering and R&D. As the company continues to grow, Robinson Brothers continues to build the workforce of tomorrow by providing industrial placement education programs. Industrial placements offer a unique insight into STEM careers. Robinson Brothers facilitates Industrial Placement Schemes for Undergraduate Chemists, through working partnerships with the University of Birmingham, University of Wolverhampton and Aston University. Alongside this, Robinson Brothers continues to support Apprenticeship Schemes to train young professionals within their Engineering and Science divisions to develop the next generation of workers.
