Research Experience for Teachers (RET)
The purpose of the NSF-RET program is to provide opportunity for teachers to carry out front-line research, with the purpose of furthering their continued professional development. Teachers are assigned to the individual discipline of their preference (physics, chemistry, chemical engineering) to work with the MRSEC scientists and their post-docs, graduate students, and technical support staff for each individual lab. The Center will not be offering an RET program in 2012. Click to view 2008 research topics RET Participants from Past Years
