For a third year, the Center for Materials Science and Engineering is offering Junior High and High School science teachers an opportunity to spend the summer engaged in research on the MIT campus. In addition, participants will collaborate with each other and faculty to develop classroom materials and lesson plans based on that research experience. Four teachers will be selected to spend seven weeks working with faculty and graduate students on projects currently under way at the Center.
Participants are responsible for their own living expenses.
Dormitory housing may be available on campus for those who cannot commute. Chemistry, Physics, and General Science teachers are invited to apply. The application deadline is April 30, 2001. MIT is a non-smoking environment. MIT encourages applications from women and members of minority groups.
