Exploration Day at Penn State 2008

Time: 10am-3pm

Exploration Day at Penn State 2008, formally known as Space Day, is a celebration of the spirit and opportunity of exploration and science at Penn State featuring interactive activities, multimedia presentations, student developed displays and activities, and planetarium shows.

In order to accommodate the increased interest from student and faculty groups interested in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education (STEM) education, Space Day was renamed Exploration Day to highlight all the exciting research occurring at Penn State. Collaborations with Bio Days, the Society of Physics Students, and other student groups emphasize the importance of a strong STEM education.
