Warning: high risk of serious fun!

Dundee Science Centre is the only UK science centre based on the five senses. If you thought science was boring think again! Sensation brings science to life in dozens of imaginative ways.

 


What will you experience?

Move a ball with the power of your mind.  Enjoy dramatic science demonstrations.  See yourself in infrared.  Morph yourself into an ape.  Investigate a crime.  Try keyhole surgery.  Take part in a science show. 

Immerse yourself in our interactive exhibitions.

After exploring the many exhibits throughout the centre, you will no doubt have worked up a healthy appetite to enjoy our award-winning Infusion coffee shop, which Proudly Brews Starbucks Coffee.  A great day out for the whole family. 

Also see our special programmes for schools, adults, teachers, scientists and groups.
