MagnifiScience Centre
The MagnifiScience Centre (MSC) is an independent science center in Karachi, with a mission to develop among the populace an interest in scientific thinking, scientific literacy, and scientific methods through engagement with interactive exhibits and programmes.
The MSC’s multistorey building, located in the City Railway Colony of Saddar,[5] opened to the public in September 2021.[1] Following its vision "science is for everyone", MSC promotes scientific literacy through experiential informal learning channels which spark curiosity, and encourage critical thinking and problem-solving.[6] The MSC aims to remove barriers to STEM education for the public, particularly for marginalised communities and differently abled persons.
The Science Centre features over 200 interactive exhibits that enable visitors to get a hands-on understanding of different science concepts and relate them to daily life.[7]
The MagnifiScience Centre is a project and run by The Dawood Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation, certified by the Pakistan Centre for Philanthropy (PCP).
