Thank You To All Teachers Who Joined Us!
For over 30 years, the SMILE Program has offered professional development for K-12 educators through workshops held two-three times a year. Lessons and supplies are provided free to each participant covering STEM content based on curricular materials developed by Precollege Programs in collaboration with researchers and partners. This August, PCP will offer the first virtual teacher workshop, sharing more STEM lessons and providing a virtual networking space for teachers to build community and discuss distance learning in their own communities and school districts. The workshop is FREE and open to any K-12 educator.
AUGUST 3RD, 9am - 12:30pm
(All times are PST, adjust one hour for MST)
AUGUST 4Th, 9am - 12:30pm
(All times are PST, adjust one hour for MST)
AUGUST 5Th, 9am - 12:30pm
(All times are PST, adjust one hour for MST)
Our teacher workshop materials and STEM lessons align to the research of OSU faculty and grant partners. Learn more about the STEM research work behind this virtual workshop and professional development.
Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) and the Forest Biotechnology Laboratory.
The Lab uses modern and sustainable plant biotechnologies, both genomics and genetic engineering, to aid in production of tree crops, including for renewable energy, wood, paper, ornamentals, and fruit. It applies DNA methods for basic research to understand the physiology and evolution of trees.
Global Ocean Carbon Cycle
Dr. Schmittner's work focuses on the oceans, their physics, biology, chemistry and variability on decadal to millennial time scales. He investigates the causes for today's global deep overturning circulation, how and why it has changed in the past, how it may change in the future, how it impacts climate, ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles.
Alien Genetics and the Ramsey Laboratory
The Lab uses the tools of computational systems biology to advance precision medicine. It integrates cellular, molecular, and population genetic information on a variety of scales within network models in order to identify new disease mechanisms or therapeutic targets.
Change and reliable Systems Engineering and Management (CaRSEM)
The Lab focuses on deveoping a fundamental understanding of how to engineer and manage systemic change in organizations by combining engineering management, industrial engineering, and systems science.
OSU is leading the charge in designing and delivering the next generation of ships to advance coastal science. With more modern technology and abilities than previous generations of ocean research ships, these Regional Class Research Vessels (RCRV) will be cutting-edge platforms that provide scientists and educators access to the marine realm.
