About the program

The University of Tasmania welcomes you to two days of engaging, hands-on science activities for Year 9 and 10 students.

Carry out hands-on experiments in university laboratories, work with experts from different areas, take part in problem-solving challenges, and experience university life on campus as part of this year’s Science Experience program.

UTAS sponsors 4 students per school to attend the Science Experience program. Schools seeking to bring more than 4 students can contact the Science Experience admin for further sponsorship with Rotary. Strictly 6 students max per school.
