The RET program allows teachers to work on independent research projects.
Participants can choose between technical or educational research projects.
All participants will have direct interactions with research scientists, post-doctoral scholars, and graduate students. Applicants must be a U. S. Citizen or U.S. Legal Permanent Resident. Applications are especially encouraged from women, the physically disabled and persons who are members of underrepresented groups. Participants are required to work full time and may not have outside jobs or enroll in classes that interfere with normal working hours. To apply for the RET program, fill out an on-line application .
