What is “AU Explore”?
AU Explore is a science and math festival sponsored by the College of Sciences and Mathematics at Auburn University. It will take place on the AU campus on Thursday, April 26, 2012. Approximately 1500 students in grades 5-8 from across Alabama will be invited to experience raptors, snakes, and other live animals up close, participate in mini-workshops at the “Make-n-Take Science Fun Shop”, visit with Auburn faculty and students at the Science and Math EXPOs, and much more!
Check-in will begin at 8:30 a.m. (pre-registration required). Activities will begin at 9:00 a.m. and run until 2:00 p.m.
Please pre-register your students on-line at this link. On the registration form, you will be asked to provide your estimated time of arrival and time of departure. Your arrival and departure times are up to you, but knowing those times will really help us with planning the activities.
This year’s AU Explore is a satellite event of the USA Science and Engineering Festival in Washington D.C. on April 28-29. For more info, visit http://www.usasciencefestival.org/.
