A Physics demonstration at an Outreach event

Schools and Outreach

An important element of work in Lancaster University’s School of Physics and Astronomy is to further the public understanding of physics and to inspire and enthuse young people in physics.

  • Lab in a Box

    Schools and colleges can borrow five experiments that illustrate key discoveries in modern physics.

  • Online Resources for Schools

    We offer a collection of online resources and computer-based exercises for schools, inspired by our own research.

  • School Visits

    Our school visits are aimed at providing students with an experience that will enthuse them into considering taking physics at university.

  • LUniverse Planetarium

    Our portable inflatable planetarium can visit your school or community group and take you on a tour of the universe

  • Other Experiences

    On top of these, we also offer many other exciting ways to get involved with Physics.
