Sharing the wonder and excitement of scientific discovery, the value and significance of the scientific method for modern society, and the importance and impact of scientific research for our standard of living, have become increasingly important missions for scientific institutions as they seek to reach out to schools and the general public. In addition to conducting science at a world-class level and training the next generation of scientists, IST Austria develops and organizes a portfolio of outreach activities. The Institute’s first Science-Education Day, titled “Enrich. Engage. Evolve.”, will provide a forum for international perspectives and exchange on a variety of topics in science education, with a focus on designing educational material and activities for children and teenagers and working effectively with teachers.
