Science and Technology for Canadians

National Science and Technology Week

October 18 to 27, 2013

National Science and Technology Week

Join us in celebrating science with Canadians. Any educational event -- large or small -- with a focus on science or technology is a valuable part of National Science and Technology Week (NSTW).

As of June 2013, you can make your event an official part of NSTW by registering it on this website. The website will also allow you to find more information about NSTW, discover new ways to take part, and find many supportive resources.

Registered events will be featured on an online map and included in the event listings. Organisations will receive formal acknowledgement of their participation, and benefit from NSTW's national social media campaign.

NSTW
