Outreach

We are committed to presenting exciting educational material to empower our community, in addition to increasing public awareness of Materials Science and Engineering.

Outreach sessions are presented to a variety of student (K - 12 and community college) and parent audiences using demonstration kits and various media. Please contact our outreach coordinator to organize an outreach event for your class or science fair.

We are always open to new ideas and volunteers. If you have any questions, or would like to volunteer, please do not hesitate to contact us at: matadv@uw.edu
