The goal of Science Fuse is to make science research an equally viable choice for youngsters to pursue in leisure time as is perhaps indulging in sports, music and arts. The enterprise offers young students a unique opportunity to learn science by ‘doing’ at their summer camps, through extracurricular science workshops and after-school science clubs.
The overall mission is to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers, to engage the wider public with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) as part of popular culture, and to strengthen connection between researchers and the public.
