Dozens of hands-on science activities to explore for the whole family!

This event is part of the 2024 Science Expeditions. Science Expeditions is an annual public event that invites the community to interact with researchers, visit science venues, participate in interactive exploration stations, and more. This year’s Science Expeditions, which takes places during UW–Madison’s 175th anniversary, is co-hosted with the 175th community open house.

Part of the annual Science Expeditions campus open house for science, the Discovery Expo welcomes the public to an interactive day with scientists from the UW-Madison campus community.

Visitors can stroll through dozens of hands-on exploration stations featuring STEM activities featuring virtual reality, health and medicine, chemistry, astrobotany and more! Families can take in these activities at their own pace and learn more in informal conversations with scientists.

In addition to the Discovery Expo, there are many other science events available throughout the weekend for campus visitors. More information is available at the Science Expeditions website.
