Science for All is a group of University of Minnesota graduate students that supports and promotes STEM education in the urban Twin Cities community by visiting local middle schools and teaching hands-on science lessons with real-world applications. An overarching goal is to engage students in evidence-based science and experimentation derived from the scientific method.
The UMN Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) supports interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary materials research and education of the highest quality while addressing fundamental problems in science and engineering that are important to society. The MRSEC runs a comprehensive outreach program with activities designed to broaden participation in STEM at all levels from Kindergarten through college.
The MRSEC Research Experience for Teachers (RET) is a program that allows K12 teachers to actively participate in current research with one of our faculty’s research groups and design standards-based classroom activities from these experiences. One of the RET programs is the Green & Sustainable Chemistry workshop for high school teachers.
CEMS outreach is conducted by a committee that is collaborative/joint between SOAR and the CEMS Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) working group. Please contact either group for outreach information and opportunities with the CEMS department.
