What is GEMS?

Great Explorations in Math and Science (GEMS) bring science and math to life through interactive workshops led by dynamic UW-Eau Claire faculty.  Each workshop focuses on a different topic that is sure to capture the imagination of both youth and adults.  Explore the amazing world of scientific discovery through experiments, demonstrations and hands-on activities.  See firsthand how scientists help us understand and shape the world around us.
