This is an opportunity to raise the profile of research, engage directly with visitors and inspire people of all ages to take an interest in science. VUB researchers get the opportunity to share their research in various formats, such as:
- hands-on activity
- workshop
- demonstration
- lecture
- quiz
- walking tour
- exhibition
- or another surprising format
As Science Day is an initiative of the Flemish Government, all activities must also be available in Dutch. English-speaking researchers are certainly welcome to take part, provided that a Dutch-speaking colleague is present during the festival to provide explanations or translations where necessary.
Registration
Activities can be registered up to and including 4 September 2026 using this form:
It will be announced at the end of September which activities have been selected.
