About Our Programs

Bringing Science to Kids

Through our esteemed Scholars in the Schools programs, Pinhead Punk Science events, Robotics Teams, Science Inspiration Programs, No School Science Projects, Summer Science Camps, and After School Programs, Pinhead provides a variety of opportunities for kids to engage in science with leading science professionals right here in our region – both in and out of school. In our newly opened Pinhead Headquarters, we host programs like Mad Labs, Fashion Engineering, Lego Robotics and more! There is no shortage of cool science fun when Pinhead is involved!

And Kids to Science

The Pinhead Internship Programs are personalized six-week immersion experiences where select students work with leading researchers on the most interesting questions of science. Highly-qualified rising high school seniors declare their area of interest and Pinhead provides the internship to fit their dreams.

Pinhead empowers participants to become active scientists capable of addressing real-world problems.
