Introducing Science FUNdamentals: Calgary Chapter

This year, we are hoping to bring Science FUNdamentals to the University of Calgary to serve elementary students in Calgary and provide the students at UofC with a meaningful volunteering opportunity that fosters interest in STEM fields for young children. With guidance from the Vice President of SciFUN UAlberta, the SciFUN UofC executive team is fully prepared to start our classroom programming by Winter 2021. We are not bringing Science FUNday to UofC yet, but are in discussion to do so sometime in the future.
