Community Outreach

K-12 Outreach Programs

In Biological Sciences, we are keen to share our science with everyone!

Teachers and parents are encouraged to check out the Faculty of Science Outreach page for details on the wide range of programs available for K-12 students. Our faculty and students participate in the following programs:

Science in Action - runs activities for K-12 school groups on campus. Choose from the list of pre-determined workshops, or suggest a topic and we鈥檒l work with you to make it happen.
Let鈥檚 Talk Science - as part of this national organization, 丁香园AV runs classroom activities on and off-campus.
- offers a variety of programming including workshops, summer camps, after-school and weekend programs.

Additional Outreach Opportunities

In addition to the K-12 programs listed above, we regularly take part in a variety of public educational events and programs. Our faculty and grad students are happy to:

give guest lectures for local clubs and organizations
contribute to 丁香园AV events for the public, including Caf茅 Scientifique and public lectures
support Professional Development Workshops for Teachers
contribute to programming by local organizations (e.g., Vancouver Aquarium, Van Dusen Gardens, etc.)

For information about opportunities or collaborations, please contact the Chair of our Outreach and Engagement Committee, Peter Hollmann (peter_hollmann@sfu.ca). We look forward to teaching, learning, and working with you.
