Destination Exploration (DE) is one of the youth outreach programs at the U of L. Run under the Faculty of Arts & Science, DE provides a variety of hands-on and engaging science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) programs for youth and their families. Destination Exploration's goal is to provide participants with experiences that create self-awareness of their abilities and the enjoyment they find in STEAM as a base for life-long learning.
COVID-19 Update (Apr 18, 2022):
DE programming follows the guidance of the University and as such proof of vaccination will no longer be required for our programming. Masking for community members participating in DE programming is no longer required, but recommended.
