Education Outreach Day

San Diego STEM Ecosystem

We're excited to announce that you and your students have the opportunity to take an inspirational STEM field trip to the Society for Science & the Public's Education Outreach Day in Anaheim on Thursday, May 14, 2020!

As part of our International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), Education Outreach Day gives thousands of students and their teachers a chance to participate in a full day of hands-on, team-oriented STEM programming, including meeting and learning from some of the 1,700 high school ISEF research Finalists from more than 80 countries, regions and territories. Specifically, school groups rotate among the following activities:

ISEF Finalist Hall Exploration - Visiting students will have the opportunity to talk to finalists at their project displays, while on a quest to find projects from diverse subject areas, spanning every continent and showing commonalities among world problems
STEM Classroom Workshops - Local organizations will offer special opportunities to schools to meet with them in small groups for in-depth activities on a single STEM topic
STEM Innovation Expo - Local and national STEM educational institutions and STEM-focused companies will showcase their work by allowing students to explore, play and create with hands-on STEM experiences in an expo-hall setting
