Funded by Study UK, these webinars aim to showcase the UK's expertise with Chinese students and young professionals in STEAM fields.

STEAM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics and arts) subjects are popular among outbound Chinese students, who are increasingly making study decisions based on their employability prospects. The UK enjoys a strong reputation in STEAM education among the general public in China thanks to its first-class teaching resources and its advances in career enhancement. In addition, the wide range of subjects offered by UK institutions, and the fascinating career opportunities that they open, make the UK a highly attractive study destination. This has contributed to the continuous growth of Chinese students studying STEAM subjects in the UK in the past few years.

Opportunity

The 2025 Study UK subject strength webinar for STEAM subjects will be delivered together with academics, industry professionals and alumni, who will share their experiences in order to help prospective students gain a comprehensive understanding of STEAM subjects and their career-enhancing features, and make an informed decision about their continuing education.

UK institutions are invited to nominate academics, professionals, and alumni to share excellent experiences in teaching and career services, and to also showcase the graduate outcomes on related topics.

Benefits

The webinars offer a highly accessible channel for UK institutions to promote their offering to an audience of prospective students in China. We expect the webinar to reach an audience of 5,000 audiences through online live-streaming and recording, allowing participating institutions to promote their offering among Chinese students who are specifically interested in these subject areas.

Promotion of the webinar will be coordinated with the Study UK China’s social media channels including WeChat, Weibo, and RED. The webinar will also be promoted by British Council China and British Embassy social accounts.
