Science Rendezvous at UBC

May 12, 2018 - 10:00 am - 2:00 pm

Free

Join us for The University of British Columbia’s 2018 Science Rendezvous festival. Science Rendezvous is an annual festival held across Canada showcasing the Art in Science. This year’s theme is “Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead!” and will emphasize science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) research and innovation.

On Saturday May 12 (10 AM – 2 PM) race across the University to complete our Science Chase! From the Old Barn Community Centre to the Department of Chemistry, intrepid visitors will race across campus and experience the power of STEAM! Take a ride on a hovercraft, discover micro-organisms in the pond, explore quantum physics, and learn how fire, ash, and magma made the Earth we walk on today. Make it through all the explosions, workshops, and hands-on experiments to emerge a science victor!

The event, which has activities across UBC campus, is FREE for everyone. Join us on May 12th to win cool prizes, tour UBC, and of course, learn about all the amazing feats of science and engineering happening right here at home! Check out our website for more event information and a map with all our fun activities.
