DOST 6's Grandest Reg'l S&T Event Starts Today
DOST 6 is also bringing for the first time the agency’s recently launched mobile science learning facility
called nuLab-- DOST’s second science bus following the success of the Science Explorer, which has served
more than 30,000 elementary and high school students in more than 100 municipalities all over the country
since 2010. Primarily intended for senior high school students, nuLab’s advanced Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) modules feature topics such as nanotechnology, aerospace
engineering, nuclear science, earthquake risk analysis, science media literacy, programming, oceanography,
robotics, entomology, and environmental science.

Moreover, the regional office is also hosting the Mini-Robotics Workshop and Competition that will bring
exhibitors from Data Science and Technology Corporation (DSTC) to demonstrate to the high school
student participants from Iloilo City some of robotics concepts and masterpieces through a workshop on
the first and second day of the event and will get to compete on the third day. This aims to hopefully
encourage the youngsters to pursue science courses in the future.
In pursuing this year’s theme, several activities are lined up to showcase S&T innovations and
accomplishments such as the S&T Exhibits, Tektienda: MSME Product Fair, YES! Youth Explorers of
Science, iLounge, Innovation Challenge, and other attractions aside from above mentioned.
Last year, the three-day RSTW was celebrated at Robinsons Place Roxas, Roxas City, Capiz and was
attended by 55,480 participants.
Everyone is welcome to visit the exhibits and experience the celebration of DOST’s RSTW and RICE.
