Event Description
Drexel University is hosting Philly Materials Science and Engineering Day, a FREE public event where you can learn more about how the stuff we interact with every day really works. Everything around us - the clothes we wear, the computers we use, the vehicles that transport us, the hip implants and artificial heart valves that improve our health - is made of stuff. Materials science and engineering is the study of that stuff: what it's made of, why it behaves the way it does, and what we can do with it to make life better and more sustainable.
2020 marks the tenth anniversary of Philly Materials Day, focusing on hands-on activities for all ages and special small group workshops geared to ages 10 and up where participants will work on teams exploring how specific materials impact their world. Partner organizations include the University of Pennsylvania, the Franklin Institute, and the Science History Institute among others.
