Hi Louise Here's my suggestion to add to your growing list. I'm at Glasgow University and there are several options in the city for the PGCE courses. There is an active Setpoint and a Science and Engineering ambassadors group based in Glasgow University and the Glasgow Science Centre. Personally I am involved in quite a lot of outreach work including a public engagement project on silicon technology. We are often looking for presenters. Our new (and not quite finished website!) is at www.chipsforeveryone.co.uk.and will give you an idea of what we are doing. Happy to answer any questions you have. best wishes Jane ----- Original Message ----- From: "Louise Reynolds" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2006 12:18 PM Subject: [PSCI-COM] Universities with active science communication departments > I'm about to apply to universities for my secondary school PGCE in Physics > and Maths but I'd like to work part-time with a science outreach programme > while I'm studying.
