  • Scottish Science Centres Network (SSCN)
    Scottish Science Centres Network (SSCN) The SCCN consists of 4 centres distributed across Scotland: Aberdeen Science Centre (est. 1988); Dundee Science Centre (est. 2000); Glasgow Science Centre (est. 2001); Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh (est. 1999). On an annual basis, we engage with close to 1 million people (young people, adults, families and community groups) in our centres and through community and outreach programmes that cover every local authority area in Scotland. We engage people with contemporary science on themes including energy, digital, health, life sciences, environmental science, climate change, geology, space, engineering and innovation. We create meaningful experiences with science. Experiences that are inspiring and relevant and offer everything from the first steps on a STEM journey, to deeper lasting learning and engagement. In response to the Call for Evidence: A Review of Coherent Provision and Sustainability in Further and Higher Education, we propose that the SSCN be viewed as essential public engagement partners for the further and higher education sector. The post-pandemic environment offers a tremendous opportunity for closer partnership working and efficient use of already established interfaces to key participant groups. Our expertise in science communication can accelerate progress towards a number of shared goals including: • Raising awareness of the importance of research and innovation in science and technology and the benefits it can bring to society; • Identifying pathways into further and higher education for young people and supporting them on towards careers in science and technology; • Widening access and participation in further and higher education for people from disadvantaged backgrounds, and promoting equality and inclusion. All four centres in the network have delivered numerous successful partnerships with universities and colleges over the last few years.
