Scientist in Residence Program

Our Scientist in Residence Program provides a real Scientist to spend time engaging with your teacher(s) and students at a fixed time weekly for the duration of the program, typically 4-8 weeks. The Scientist will introduce your class to what they do at work and then guide your class(es) in an extended investigation that involves student research, support for their teacher, and direct interactions with the scientist either virtually or 'on-site' at your school.  Students/teachers get to ask their scientist questions about the project their class is doing and even about the scientist's work, motivation, education and inspiration.
