Exploring space or Earth’s subsurface aren’t just realms for imagination; they are promising career paths. As one of the world’s largest untapped markets for critical minerals and a growing Australian space sector, kindling a passion for exploration is pivotal for the future of the Australian industry and beyond.
Through mentorships, internships, student programs, and more, we are actively shaping the future STEM leaders of tomorrow.
Fleet Space Technologies is giving students from Year 4 to Year 12 an extraordinary chance to design artwork for our next-gen Centauri satellite. Our competition gives you ‘space’ to explore and launch your creativity into orbit.
The pillars of our STEM program are designed to showcase the wonders of space and ignite a passion for STEM.
Early Years
Engage students in STEM before age 12 to capitalise on their eagerness, bridge gaps and challenge biases.
What we do:
Onsite Visits
We guide students through daily operations, showcase our tools, address real challenges, and celebrate achievements. We make space accessible.
School incursions
We develop workshops and conferences introducing kids to the joys of STEM through hands-on experience with space technology and geophysical tools, to sharpen critical thinking skills and teamwork in an interactive and fun learning environment.
High School
Inspiring STEM passion in Australian high schoolers is key to building a skilled workforce.
What we do:
Work Experience
Embark on a journey into space exploration with Fleet HQ! Open to students from years 10-12 for one week per term, our immersive program provides a firsthand look at the galactic projects they could be a part of, offering a unique and inspiring experience in space exploration.
Graduates
Empowering STEM graduates is vital for workforce development and innovation.
What we do:
Intern Program
Our internship program offers hands-on experience, fostering connections between graduates and universities to shape future STEM leaders.
LaunchBox puts the wonders of space into students’ hands. Through hands-on experiences, kids learn to construct 3D nanosatellites, launch them into the stratosphere using balloons, and retrieve the image(s) for review.
Teaming up with Robinson Aerospace Systems, we give secondary students an immersive experience in the assembly and operation of a flatpack desktop satellite kit, designed to empower students with advanced design thinking, critical reasoning and problem-solving skills.
We are sponsoring the Mission to Mars Program at Hamilton Secondary College, enriching the students’ experience on the simulated Mars environment with our ExoSphere technology.
Fleet passionately engages in STEM events throughout the year, fostering curiosity, innovation, and collaboration among students, particularly in the fields of space, defence, and mineral exploration industries.
Partner with us to take STEM programs in schools to new heights. Fuel the future, bridge industry gaps, and inspire a passion for STEM. Let's nurture future explorers together.
