Come see exciting experiments and hands-on activities related to materials science and engineering! Students will perform demonstrations, many of which the guests can participate in. Room 8-102 features demos geared toward elementary and early middle school audiences, with activity stations such as “magic” hydrophobic sand, shape memory metal, playing with vacuum, and make-your-own slime!
Room 8-107 features demos geared toward late middle and high school age audiences, with activity stations such as make-your-own battery, liquid nitrogen supermagnet, renewable energy materials, and using bubbles to make crystals! Long pants and closed-toe shoes are required in 8-107.
