Burnie will become Tasmania’s City of Science during National Science Week, with a week-long celebration bringing students, families, scientists, industry and the wider community together for hands-on STEM experiences.
 
At the centre of Big Burnie Science Week is the GreenSTEM Fair, where young people from across northwest Tasmania will showcase science investigations, engineering prototypes and technology projects alongside interactive exhibits, workshops and public presentations.
 
With expected appearances from leading science communicators including Dr Karl Kruszelnicki and Dr Kirsten Banks, the program will put regional Tasmania in the spotlight and inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers and innovators.
