Physics Outreach Presenter
The aim of the UNSW School of Physics Outreach Unit is to help raise the awareness of Physics and Astronomy. UNSW
Science's purpose is to explain the Science of the world around us in an accessible and enjoyable way for all, no matter
one's background. The Outreach program invites members of the community to come and learn about the Universe from
a physical and astronomical perspective.
The UNSW School of Physics has put together an outreach group comprised of academics, post doctorates,
postgraduates and undergraduates.
The Physics and Astronomy programs here at UNSW cater for both the school groups (primary and secondary) and the
general public alike. These programs range from covering topical subjects in the NSW school syllabus in a fun and
highly interactive way to presenting the latest research by active scientists.
