University of the West of Scotland Spotlight on Science
Invitation to University of the West of Scotland Spotlight on Science @ UWS Event – 7 June 4-7pm, UWS Paisley Campus (part of Glasgow Science Festival 2018)
On 7 June the School of Science and Sport at the University of the West of Scotland will open its doors to the public to showcase the vast range of its STEM research activities through interactive workshops and short talks led by research students and staff. There will also be an opportunity to meet a NASA astronaut.
For many years UWS has engaged in promoting STEM disciplines and careers in STEM to young people and last year we ran a similar event which was very well received by young people. We have a strong tradition of research that is practical and relevant particularly in STEM disciplines, and activities will cover a range of areas where we are making an impact such as forensics, sports science, biomedical science, marine and animal science, environmental sustainability. There will be opportunities for participants (adults and young people) to meet with our enthusiastic researchers, engage their own curiosity and creativity and gain a better understanding of the impact of STEM in our world.
Please contact Professor Tedford for further information.
