Outreach Programs
- Science Festivals – Science Festivals are two hour sessions composed of one Show, two Guided Activities and ten or more Table Top Exhibits.
- Shows/Assemblies – These 30 – 45 minute shows cover topics like forces, air pressure, extreme temperatures or circus science. Each show requires audience participation to convey the scientific concepts.
- Guided Activities - Each Activity starts by covering the basic concept and application of a science or engineering topic then letting the participants explore the topic in more depth through experimentation. Topics include Geodesic Domes, Chromatography, Rockets and others.
- Starlab – DCI has a portable planetarium which can be set up in school gyms for star talks and constellation viewing throughout the year.
- Table Top Exhibits - These are smaller versions of DCI exhibits which are set up in schools, libraries and other community centers.

Famous quotes containing the word programs:
“Short of a wholesale reform of college athletics—a complete breakdown of the whole system that is now focused on money and power—the women’s programs are just as doomed as the men’s are to move further and further away from the academic mission of their colleges.... We have to decide if that’s the kind of success for women’s sports that we want.”
—Christine H. B. Grant, U.S. university athletic director. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A42 (May 12, 1993)
