About London International Youth Science Forum

These visits include departments at, Oxford and Cambridge as well as Airbus, Rolls Royce, National Oceanography Centre and Culham Science Center, to name a few.

- There is an active social calendar with events designed to enable those from around the world to learn about different cultures. The scope of LIYSF extends further than broadening scientific understanding to engage students in education on other cultures and develop lasting, international friendships.
