Dear Valued Stakeholder,

NIHERST maintains a robust Science popularisation programme.

The programme was designed to improve citizens' understanding of and engagement in Science, to develop their innovative capacity, to encourage students in their pursuit of Science studies and careers, and to nurture a national Science ethos.

The Institute’s extensive outreach programme promotes scientific and technological concepts using a range of non-traditional teaching methods.

The NIHERST Outreach Team is excited to visit your location.

The programme themes include: Astronomy, Energy, Environment, General Science, Healthy Lifestyles, Human Body, Natural Disasters, Natural Disasters and Physics.
