Science Centre Singapore , Singapore



For individuals who are interested in the technology and science, they can visit to Singapore Science Center

 Singapore Science Center

  
Science Centre Singapore is dedicated to the promotion of science and technology among students and members of the public. As a leading Science Centre in the region, it has twelve exhibition galleries with more than 1,000 interactive exhibits

The Science Centre was born in from the then National Museum of Singapore into a separate institution so that the latter could specialise in its artistic and historical collections. This idea was first mooted in 1969 by the Science Council of Singapore, and was subsequently approved by the government, who was keen to promote scientific education in the rapidly modernising country keen to tap into the technological sector

The SCS building's architecture was decided by an architectural design competition organised by the Science Centre Board. Raymond Woo's entry was selected, and was thus commissioned as the architect for the project. Built at a cost of S$12 million on a 60,000 m² site in Jurong East, it was officially opened on 10 December 1977 by Dr Toh Chin Chye, who was the Minister-in-charge of the Science Centre Board

On 7 December 2007, the Science Centre rebranded itself to be known as "Science Centre Singapore" ("SCS")
 

The whole family will have fun learning science the interactive way at the Science Centre! Mind-boggling exhibits and challenging activities will set your brain into high gear. Adjacent to the Centre is one of the world’s most advanced theatres, the Omni planetarium, screening Omnimax movies and Planetarium travels. While you're at it, don't forget to explore the Kinetic Graden, Asia's first outdoor interactive garden of science
