Abstract
Optical and laser engineering are not only prevalent in science fiction movies but find numerous technological applications ranging from additive manufacturing over machining of micro/nano-scale features to biomedical imaging or space telescopes applications. In a related context, science simplification lectures with diverse visualization techniques and OSA optics suitcase can be utilized to bring attention and inspire careers in future technologies. The suggested work focuses on developing the outreach program to train the trainees (as photonic ambassadors) specifically in the field of photonics and optical applications which is the expanded programme for multidisciplinary outreach activities for school students over 10 years (or pre-university students in the future) [1]. The extended activities can support a wide range of students in Ireland, Europe, and the international prospects as well, which increases the possibility of promoting photonics technology careers in the future. The paper will explain the guidelines and topics of the proposed practical workshop (INNOVATIVE WAYS TO PHOTONICS FUTURE "TRANSFER THE KNOWLEDGE") which can help trainees and give them some techniques for engaging targeted students and creating an interactive environment. The detailed characterization of the workshop structure and related pragmatic sessions will be illustrated in this work as well as the systematic steps of the developed program outline.
