Welcome to STEM Sussex
Welcome to the new STEM Sussex website. The site still contains all the information you used to find on the SETPOINT Sussex site, but has additional information and interactivity, including a up-to-date news feeds, so you can find out quickly what is happening in the world of STEM.
The aim is for the site to evolve over time, becoming a comprehensive resource for ‘all things STEM’ in Sussex.
