Science Outreach Activities

The College of Science and Mathematics is committed to reaching out into the community to promote science and mathematics to area K-12 students. We believe it is vital to promote science and mathematics as a career option. Below are some of the major programs run by the college or programs of which we are a major partner.

Exploring Science
A annual event in which middle and high schools from Ohio districts bring students to the WSU campus to participate in a myriad of hands-on science activities. For more information on participating in this event, call Stacia Edwards at 937-775-3180.

Science Fair 101
An online resource for students and teachers to plan, create and participate in a school or district science fair.

Trebuchet competition
