We meet Victoria Diep a 15 yr old student who attended the three day Conoco Phillips Science Experience at the University of Technology Sydney. The program takes place over 35 universities and tertiary institutions within many different laboratories and lecture theatres. Participants perform experiments in the laboratories, meet and hear senior lecturers, attend site visits and experience what its like to be on a tertiary campus. Peter Lorschy from St Ives Rotary Club explains his Club's support for youth focussed activities and their involvement with the Conoco Phillips Science Experience.
