SUMMARY:National Science and Engineering Week 2008
DESCRIPTION:As part of National Science and Engineering Week 2008 Lancaster University are holding a series of activities to promote Science and Technology to school students.\n\nThe activities are spread across four day session (approx 10am-3pm) and are aimed at year 10 and 11 students.\n\nMonday 10 March: Lancaster Environment Centre Day - Departments of Geography, Biology and Environmental Science sessions (students attending will be able to attend all 3 sessions)\n\nWednesday 12 March: Computing and Technology Day - Departments of Computing, Communication Systems and Engineering sessions\n\nThursday 13 March: Centre of Medical Education - This half day session (9:30-13:00) is designed to let school students experience the range of different settings in which medical students learn at Lancaster University\n\nFriday 14 March: Departments of Physics, Maths and Psychology offering a series of interactive talks and demonstrations\n\nMany of the sessions have specific relevance to the current GCSE curriculum as well as of current media interest. Lancaster's Engineering Department, for example, has a session on The Greenest Way to Travel, while Maths and Statistics have Lara Croft and the Scalar Triple Product and Environmental Science will lead a session on Water Chemistry near a Tungsten Mine.\n\nWe hope students will find these sessions both informative and fun, and that they will be encouraged to keep studying science and technology related subjects within school.\n\nIf you are a teacher and are interested in sending students to one or more of these sessions please get in touch with Alan Darragh via the SciTech Schools Programme link below.
