Broader Impacts Science Outreach

Morehead Planetarium and Science Center partners with researchers applying for grants to develop Broader Impacts projects that make your research findings available and accessible to a wide range of audiences. As granting agencies increasingly demand broad impact and the university encourages public engagement, Morehead is a convenient, high-quality partner for science outreach. With researchers providing current science and Morehead providing content and curriculum development and delivery expertise, the result can be highly engaging and effective.
