Cool Science

Cool Science is a non-profit that makes science cool for kids - just like sports, music or art. We're real scientists, engineers and educators who share our fascination, experience and passion at a time when many schools lack good, hands-on science programs. Each year we bring hundreds of fun, thought-provoking, hands-on science and engineering activities to almost 20,000 kids in schools, scout troops, libraries and various community venues. We also host the huge Cool Science Carnival at UCCS each October and the Big Cool Science Festival at Colorado College each April, events that amaze and educate thousands each year. Cool Science not only helps develop a more scientifically informed public - important in its own right - but we also expose our youth to the possibilities of careers in science and engineering. That's cool - and it matters!
