STEREOTYPES were smashed at Charles Sturt University (CSU) on Friday when 200 girls from across the Central West sat down for a practical lesson in engineering.
CSU’s engineering building hosted Power of Engineering, an organisation that aims to promote the industry to young people, with a particular focus on engaging female, regional and indigenous students.
The Bathurst event was the biggest ever for the organisation, with students from 13 high schools across the region participating in the workshops.
