Schools liaison and outreach
The Department of Chemistry at the University of York has a dedicated Schools Liaison and Outreach programme that aims to engage young people of all ages with chemistry-based activities. These are offered by members of the department plus our Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC).
There are opportunities for school groups to visit the University to see some of the work that goes on in our laboratories, and members of the department go out to run activities in schools and at organised external events.
