The Outreach and Education Committee of the British Society for the History of Science coordinates and directs the Society’s efforts to promote the understanding of the history of science, technology and medicine in a wide range of educational contexts, both formal and informal.

We do this through a variety of public events, work with museums, festivals and schools, and through the provision of grants and awards. The committee also works to foster relationships between universities, museums and other institutions concerned with public engagement. To contact the committee, to find out more about current projects or to discuss new suggestions, please email outreach@bshs.org.uk.
