Where: Northwestern’s Evanston campus

Times: 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Cost: $8 per attendee

For: Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, and Venturers of high school age with a strong interest in science or engineering are invited to attend. Only five individuals maximum per unit will be accepted. Accepted individuals will receive an information packet that will include instructions for some interesting and fun advance research. This research will help Scouts get more out of their visit and it may win them a prize!

Hosted by the International Institute for Nanotechnology, this event offers Girl Scouts an extraordinary opportunity to see science research in action at a world-class institute. Scouts will learn about the exciting new field of nanotechnology and meet and work with scientists whose discoveries will profoundly affect their futures. At the conclusion of this event, Girl Scouts will sit with their scientist mentors and enjoy pizza, pop, and talk.
