Midlands Science provides opportunities for people of all ages to explore and discuss issues of scientific interest and encourages young people to consider a career in science, technology, engineering or mathematics. Throughout the year, we deliver programmes for primary and secondary schools in the region and raise awareness of the value of STEM to our society and economy. Each year, our annual Festival welcomes visitors to over a hundred events and receives extensive media coverage. This work is delivered by our team, Jackie Gorman, Pauline Nally and Aoife Scanlon.
The work of Midlands Science is a real and tangible example of how we can teach children about the wonders of the world in a simple and hands-on way. It will hopefully instill in the young students a love of learning, particularly about science and the world around them.
