Local Outreach:

 BIOS offers hands-on science education to visiting school groups from Bermuda and around the world.

BIOS provides an increasingly important range of educational services to groups both local and from overseas. The innovative new program BIOS Explorer, based on the internationally renowned, award-winning JASON Project, and the Bermuda Schools' Science Enrichment Programme both provide hands-on experiences for Bermuda's school children and free professional development for Bermuda's teachers. Visiting high schools and colleges base their field trips at BIOS and use BIOS's educational resources. With the assistance of BIOS's Graduate Interns, field trips and lab sessions can be scheduled for both in-house and local groups, and tailored to fit the interests of the group concerned. BIOS Faculty members and Graduate Interns are also available to deliver lectures on a number of scientific topics.
