Our Resources

The ChemSTEP project has curated several bespoke resources that can be used with your young person to raise the profile of chemistry-related careers: 

The ‘ChemDiverse: Profiles’ project gives you access to a range of career profiles that can be shared with your young person to showcase the diversity of those working in the chemical sciences. 

The ‘ChemDiverse: Videos’ project is similar, but presents the career information, background and advice of diverse chemists in short video format. 

You can also check out some of the websites of the employers that we work with.
