Share this

Everyone’s journey to becoming a scientist is unique. Don't miss this chance to interact with the Caltech scientific stars of tomorrow as they share their research, what inspires them, and their story so far.

In Science Journeys, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars explore a range of scientific topics that will pique students' curiosity and provide educators with supplemental resources to continue that exploration in the classroom.

Programs are designed for grades 5–9, but everyone is welcome to attend. All events are free through the generosity of the Friends of Beckman Auditorium, but registration is required.
