关于我们
One of the world's largest science centers and New England’s most attended cultural institution, the Museum of Science, Boston introduces 1.5 million visitors a year to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) via dynamic programs and hundreds of interactive exhibits. The Museum of Science carries out its mission as a leader in transforming the nation’s relationship with science and technology through world-class exhibits, industry-leading curriculum, and innovative programming. As science and technology shapes our lives, it means we:
? Promote active citizenship
? Inspire lifelong appreciation of the importance of science
? Make STEM accessible to young people of all backgrounds and abilities
These principles manifest every day in all we do within the Museum walls as well as around the world, as a steward of our community, as informal and formal educators, and as advocates for scientific advancement.
Since its founding in 1830, the Museum of Science has been at the cutting edge of scientific study and education. Today it has become an iconic symbol of the city’s long cultural and technological history – and future. Within its ? mile long building, the Museum of Science includes:
? 10,000 square foot Hall of Human Life, allowing visitors to explore how they engage with their own bodies
? Thomson Theater of Electricity, home to the world’s largest Van de Graaf generator which makes indoor lightning
? Charles Hayden Planetarium, the most technologically advanced theater in New England
? Mugar Omni Theater, New England’s only dome IMAX screen
? Award-winning pre-K – 8 engineering curriculum, EiE, reaching 1.3 million students each year
As a leader in the world’s museum community, we use our role as educator and communicator to bring diverse communities together to learn, share, and consider our collective role in the future of our planet.

Science and art aren’t opposites—they’re a perfect match. ???? Molecular biologist Dr. Beata Mierzwa blends science and creativity by turning real images of cell division into stunning artwork and wearable fashion. Her mission? To inspire young minds to see that STEM isn’t just about data—it’s about imagination, design, and discovery. This project is funded by Lyda Hill Philanthropies. #Science #Art #WomeninSTEM #MolecularBiology #Fashion

Nationally award winning informal educator creating programs to bring science to communities around the world.
What an honor to get to tell my story and hopefully inspire a new generation of #Entomologists! Thank you IF/THEN and Museum of Science for sharing my story.
Can your biggest fear become your greatest passion? ???? As a kid, Dr. Ronda Hamm was terrified of insects. But a high school internship in an entomology lab changed everything. Now, as an entomologist, she studies these fascinating creatures every day. Her biggest lesson? Your dream career might come from the most unexpected place. This project is funded by Lyda Hill Philanthropies. #WomeninSTEM #IFThen #Insects #Entomology #Science

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the Youth Engineering Solutions National Network Symposium at the Museum of Science, Boston! Over two inspiring days, we shared powerful stories of how hands-on engineering has empowered educators and students nationwide. We also tackled the challenge of integrating STEM learning into increasingly constrained school schedules—leaving us both hopeful and re-energized. This impactful gathering would not have been possible without the support of MathWorks. Their commitment to STEM education continues to drive meaningful change. Here’s to advancing hands-on STEM learning together! #STEMeducation #Engineering #youthengineeringsolutions #museumofscience
