Grade 11 and 12 teachers:
You are invited to bring your class to Ryerson for science, math and computer science enrichment activities. Our Office of Science Outreach and Enrichment (OSOE) works with the Science departments to co-ordinate the visits. We offer hands-on and minds-on activities in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Mathematics and Physics.
All activities are supervised, and developed with the Ontario high school curriculum in mind. Best of all, they are provided free of charge. Your day at Ryerson will include the science activity of your choice, a campus tour and a pizza lunch.
High school teachers who wish to register their classes or to get more information about the programme may go to the OSOE website (www.ryerson.ca/osoe) and browse the descriptions of activities and available dates.
Registration is limited and offered on a first-come-first-served basis.
(To allow access to more schools, the OSOE reserves the right to limit the number of visits from a particular school). While the activities are free, we regret that we are unable to provide transportation to and from Ryerson University.
