Saturday 22nd March 2014: University of Southampton Family Science and Engineering Day

We were very lucky to part of the University of Southampton’s Science and Engineering family day. The aim is to invite families to see what goes on in Science and Engineering. They get to learn about how to make slime, robotics and what happens inside the human body (amongst other things!). Its an excellent way of bringing together the Universities outreach and public engagement activities. All I can say is that there is some fabulous outreach work going on around the university. ECS (thanks to Dr Denis Nicole) had a significant presence. We had the following activities on display:

  • Erica
  • Making model boats.
  • Soldering Activities
  • Cyber Security activities
  • Robogals
  • Beginning to programme activities.
  • Nano Lab activities.
  • Wireless society activities

These were only the activities on show we have a lot more going on! Thanks to Zena Hilton for organising such a fabulous event and thank you to everyone who participated.
