Strategies: Science Research Mentoring Program

CSE is partnering with EDC’s Center for Children and Technology (CCT) to conduct the evaluation of the American Museum of Natural History’s Science Research Mentoring Program. This three-year project offers training in biological science technologies and systematics to high school students from populations currently underrepresented in the STEM fields. The program includes preparatory courses, a summer institute, and year-long individual projects supervised by working scientists.
