SDSU Science & Engineering Sampler

Don't miss SDSU's Science & Engineering Sampler. On Saturday, March 23, 2020, from 9am to 2pm, the College of Sciences and College of Engineering at San Diego State University will open their doors to K-12 students and families to showcase interactive exhibits such as: crime solving with forensic science, telescopes, planetarium showings, laser demonstrations, Electron Microscope Facility, MRI Scanner Imaging Center, aerospace, robotics, designing new molecules, and much more.

Art is a powerful tool that can transcend barriers – it can help scientists meet people where they are and tell relatable and impacting stories that move minds. With the Conservation + Comics program, Cabrillo National Monument (National Park Service) provides a distinct experience for youth and families in the greater San Diego area. In our two-part program, participants will be guided by a biologist through a thematic nature exploration of the park, then an art educator will lead the participants in an innovative way to tell scientific stories – through comics!

With many of our partner companies issuing new policies around forgoing events, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this event.

There are many STEM Week events that will still be happening this week! Be sure to check them out by clicking on our “STEM Week” link in the banner above!

Thank you for your understanding and flexibility.

Explore, have fun, and get hands-on with marine science education! Engage with our aquarium Interpreters on the floor to learn about the animals in our Hall of Fishes, Gray Whales migrating off our coast, Specimens in our Oddities collections, and, some of the tiniest but very important organisms in the ocean, known as plankton. Each day will present different ocean-themed activities for the week. These activities are included with the price of admission.

What sounds like the beginning of a rather bad joke is actually a fun community program by the Fleet Science Center. During Two Scientists Walk Into a Bar®, local scientists will enjoy something we all do: a good conversation in a local bar.

On March 12, we are excited to put a spotlight on all the amazing female scientists and engineers in San Diego as we bring back Two Scientists Walk Into a Bar®—Celebrating Women in STEM Edition.

No talk. No presentation. Just simple conversations in a bar.
