A series of public lectures on different disciplines in Science, were successfully carried out in 2007, targeted at secondary school students. The subjects covered were in Medicine, Engineering Sciences, Biotechnology, Biology, The Plantation Industry, Material Sciences, Physics, Mathematics, and Sound Engineering. We are convinced that this is a worthwhile programme for the students in their choosing their career path.

Normally the lecture will start at 10.00am for about 60 minutes followed by Question and Answer session. Some refreshment will also be provided. Registration will start at 30minutes earlier. Some light refreshments will be provided and tour of the Pusat Sains Negara can be done after the lecture.
