Step into an interactive world of careers and take a peek behind the scenes in the Science Museum's brand new gallery.

Try hands on exhibits that bring to life a wide variety of workplaces, from a blockbuster film set to a pharmaceutical lab, allowing you to experience the hidden yet vital careers of technicians.
Experience a world of careers in one place:

  • Set foot inside Shuri’s Lab from Marvel Studios’ Black Panther to re-enact the role of a film-set lighting technician.

  • Have a go at making lifesaving medicine as an NHS pharmacy technician.

  • Operate a robotic arm and try your hand at welding a rollercoaster track.

  • Step into the world of renewable energy and solve problems faced by a wind turbine technician.

They have collaborated with industry leaders Marvel Studios, the NHS, National Grid and the University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre and many more to make these innovative exhibits true to the tasks their technicians do everyday.
