Our mission is to nurture generations of passionate learners, critical thinkers and active citizens through Design, Make, Play — an approach to learning that encourages hands-on experimentation, critical thinking, and iterative problem-solving. Through Design, Make, Play, NYSCI aspires to create a distinctive set of resources that have a measurable and scalable impact on how people learn. The museum anchors and inspires all the work we do, fostering public engagement in STEM, and supporting our youth development program, education offerings and research. We have developed innovative products to extend this learning far beyond our walls, and our extensive network of partnerships deepens and broadens our impact, locally and around the world.

We use science to educate and protect. This is our mission. This is what drives us relentlessly forward. The challenges facing this critical apex predator are many, and seemingly overwhelming. More than 100 million are slaughtered every year for their fins. Climate change is dramatically disrupting the oceanic ecosystem and food chain. And mankind’s attitudes are indifferent at best; savage at worst. We believe science—rigorous, peer-reviewed, professional—can inform and guide governing bodies and society at large to conservation policies that ensure the sustainability of all shark species.
Promoting Sustainable Business through Marine Conservation. To do so, we will Activate and Empower the Recreational Fishing Community and Represent it and its Voice at the Federal, Regional, and State levels. We will speak up in an organized and cohesive manner across all fronts. We are going to let managers and politicians know that we are here and that we count. We are going to tell them that conservation is important not only to us but to our clients and to most of the angling community.
Their mission: To create a center where physical, biological, and neuroscientists can effectively collaborate with consciousness researchers, philosophers, and others who could potentially contribute toward the actualization of the collective vision and mission outlined by the following statements. To fully understand and experimentally confirm the logical consequences of an information-based reality. To extend the reach of science into the realm of subjective experience, thus unifying mind and matter within an over-arching understanding of consciousness. To develop fundamental knowledge and understanding, of both the self and the evolving information system that appears to be the source of all reality, through rigorous scientific investigation of both physical reality and consciousness.
