Welcome to Mad Science of Dallas & Fort Worth
We believe that fostering a love for science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) in grades K-12 will give children the confidence they need to excel in these fields.
For nearly 2 decades, Mad Science of DFW has focused on designing and delivering innovative hands-on STEM maker programs and services to families, community organizations and educational institutions.
We also extend our impact through our unique relationships with NASA, LEGO, OZOBOT, SNAP CIRCUITS, OWI and many others.
Amazing ElecTRICKS
We open the world of electronics to 3rd+ graders with our Amazing ElecTRICKS project based learning program! The program combines our maker prowess and curriculum with technology from SNAP CIRCUITS, an industry leader, to teach and expand a student's knowledge of electronics, circuits, and design. Students work on several hands-on and take-home projects and make things that actually work.

Advanced Robotics with LEGO!
Come, hop on the MAKER train! The LEGO Mindstorms platform is a cutting-edge project based learning system for the emerging inventor, designer, tinkerer, artist, and the budding engineer. Designed by LEGO, it is integrated into the proven hands-on delivery model pioneered by Mad Science.
Working in small groups, students learn to work on progressively complex projects while also learning about design principles, work decomposition, teamwork and communications techniques!
Chemistry for a Green World!
What are crystals? How are they formed? What makes them unique?... these are often the types of questions asked by a curious young mind. At Mad Science, we have the answers. Answers that not only satisfy their curiosity but transforms it to a passion for more knowledge and understanding.
Students grow their own crystals in a Mad Science STEM enrichment program, offered both as a workshop and as part of a seasonal or summer camp.

On-line
For districts and campuses seeking Virtual STEM Skillbuilding programs for grades K-12, we offer LIVE-at-home-STEM programs delivered from our Teaching Studios in DFW. These are aligned with TEA's at-home-school framework.
These are traditionally delivered in the classroom, adapted for on-line mode in the Covid-19 era.

Hybrid
Many districts have utilized our hybrid programs with great success!
For hands-on enrichment, we deliver ready-to-use, custom built STEM-Resource-kits to students and then engage them in our Live-at-home-STEM sessions. For immersive enrichment, we set up students in our tutoring platform and provide small-group sessions.
