These teachers have been valuable in helping evaluate the MRSEC education and outreach programs that spread interest in materials and other technology to NYC K-12 schools. The RET program is run in conjunction with the Columbia University Summer Research Program for NYC Science Teachers, which has enriched the program with career development training for the teachers and supplemental support obtained from private foundations. |
