SHU Discovery Science Center and Planetarium



The belief in the importance of providing hands-on STEAM learning experiences that resonate with children’s natural curiosity and love of learning remain at the core of the Discovery mission. We are active advocates for science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) literacy in Connecticut, and utilize our unique resources and expertise in informal STEAM learning to encourage and provide a pathway for learners of all ages to become STEAM-empowered and informed decision makers in an increasingly technology-driven world.
