High School Students

At the Scotland Institute, we recognise how important it is for high school students interested in Science and Maths subjects to find out more about STEM careers and about the work we do. We therefore offer a number of opportunities for them to visit our labs.

Lab Visit Opportunites

^

Our Open Evening each March, where we invite local schools (teachers and pupils) to visit the Institute for a series of talks, lab tours and demonstrations;

^

Occasional shadowing opportunities for one or two local high school students at a time.

School & Student Engagement

The Institute is a very busy working environment, but we do try to accommodate as many of these visits as we can, in very large part thanks to the willingness of our researchers to volunteer their time and expertise. Our researchers also often visit local schools to talk about careers in science and about cancer research.

Stay up to date with upcoming events for High School Students by joining our mailing list.
