Department of Chemistry Outreach Activities

We are keen to engage with pupils of all ages and offer many outreach activities throughout the year targeted at different year groups. Most activities aim to provide a mix of chemistry based laboratory activities with a hands-on element, along with quizzes, lectures and demonstration experiments.
Please see below for our provisional timetable and dates of forthcoming events during 2009/10 and for further details with a brief summary of each event offered, please visit the relevant 'Primary', 'Secondary' or 'Post 16' Outreach pages.
