About SETF

SETF is a national initiative that empowers students to create impactful engineering and technology solutions for real-world challenges. We develop future-ready, community-minded innovators by equipping them with skills, tools, and mentorship to bring ideas to life.

  • Democratising access to STEM education
  • Nurturing purpose-driven, problem-solving mindsets
  • Fostering student-led innovation for the community
