Galway Science and Technology Festival

CISC is delighted to participate in the 13th GALWAY SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY FESTIVAL. The Festival takes place on campus at NUI Galway over a two week period (8th – 21st November).

One of the Festival’s proudest boasts is of its ongoing engagement with the community – the grand finale involves 20,000 young people visiting the Festival Exhibition in a day-long event, which has become one of the most popular on Galway’s annual diary. This year, the Festival Exhibition takes place on Sunday 21st November and CISC will have a stand in the Bailey Alen Hall, with information available on the activities of the Institute, and staff there to answer any questions.

The Galway Science & Technology Festival was launched in 1998 to try and bridge the gap between students and industry regarding the Science subjects. The Festival has grown over the 13 years and become an annual fixture for all those involved including Students, Teachers, Parents, Universities and Industry throughout the county.

The Festival’s aim is to inform, educate and inspire young students to choose the Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) subjects as their chosen field of study and future career which in turn will continue to provide excellent graduates required to build a strong knowledge economy.

The Committee is made up of representatives from all the sectors involved and we work together throughout the year to ensure that each year the Festival brings something new to the students and we aim to continue to inspire our young people in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.
