New Electromagnetism Workshop
Science Ireland is delighted to introduce our new Electromagnetism Workshop. In this interactive workshop participants will explore electromagnetism from static electricity to modern day technology. Working in teams, students will develop basic engineering skills to design devices such as simple electric motors.
Participants will discover the connection between electricity and magnetism and understand how they have changed our world for the better and play a role in many of the devices we use everyday. This workshop was developed with help from the RDS Science Live lecture series. It is aimed at Junior Cycle and Transition Year students.

Join Us at BT Young Scientist Exbo
Science Ireland will have a stand at the BT Young Scientist Exhibition on 14th – 16th January in RDS Dublin. Join us where we will be performing shows on static electricity and magnetism. We will make your hair stand up using a Van De Graff Generator and show magnetic fields with amazing ferrofluids.
We will also be showcasing the Wiiboard which Science Ireland is promoting in Ireland. We will have a Wiiboard setup at the stand for teachers and students.
We will have a rotating show with a new show every 15 minutes.
