Welcome to Future Science Leaders

Future Science Leaders is an after-school science enrichment program designed to engage curious minds with the nature of science, unleash creative potential, and build a life-long network of like-minded peers. Through meeting and interacting with experts from diverse STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Design, and Mathematics) fields, and hands-on experiential learning of skills inherent to the scientific process, participants will be inspired to achieve and excel in their future endeavours. For more information about the program, please visit our Science World website. To apply for the 2021-2022 program follow this link. Applications close May 1st 2021.

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower BC’s most inquisitive youth to pursue, achieve, and excel in their STEAM aspirations.

Science Communication

We believe that being able to communicate science in an understandable and relatable manner is an essential quality of a future science leader. Through FSL, our students have the opportunity to develop their science communication skills across several mediums. This website features articles written by students in Year 1 and Year 2 of our program from both our Vancouver and Surrey campuses.

Please contact us if you have any questions.
