Dundee Science Centre is an award-winning visitor attraction based in the heart of the ‘the coolest little city in Britain’ (GQ Magazine). We are a Charity, and our mission is to make science accessible. We achieve this through attracting visitors to our centre to be amazed and informed by our science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) inspired installations and experiments; delivering compelling STEM experiences in schools and communities; and collaborating with researchers and companies to make complex concepts more relevant.
Dundee Science Centre is at exciting stage of our evolution. As we celebrate 25 years of making science accessible across Tayside and North Fife, we are developing our strategic plan for the next 5 years. To support the implementation of this plan we will need a coherent and comprehensive marketing and communications plan to support our ambitions, that’s where you come in!
