Featured Programs
Summer Research Internship Program for High School Students
An 8-week research internship program for low-income, high school students from populations under-represented in math, science, engineering, and computer science.
Global Climate Change Workshop
Global climate change is a scientific, social, and political issue that is as prevalent in news headlines as it is in your classroom. This workshop will include lectures from Stanford faculty interwoven with hands-on multidisciplinary activities for middle and high school science classrooms.
Summer Research Program for Teachers
Stanford’s Summer Research Program for Teachers offers eight-week research fellowships for about 20 middle and high school teachers in the Bay Area. Teachers work in Stanford faculty members' labs four days a week, and meet once a week as a group for math, science, and engineering lectures by Stanford faculty, lab tours, and seminars on teaching.
Teacher Workshop at the Environmental Molecular Science Institute
The Environmental Molecular Science Institute in Stanford's School of Earth Sciences offers four-day summer workshops for high school science teachers that use innovative scientific findings of the Institute to help teachers design relevant curricula for their biology, chemistry, and earth science classes. See the Program's website for information about the next upcoming summer workshop.
Public Lectures and Events
Stanford offers many free lectures for the general public on science and engineering topics that are delivered by Stanford's top researchers in terms understandable to the lay public. Examples include the SLAC Lecture Series, Summer Science Lecture Series, and "Brainstorms." See the "Lectures & Public Events" page on this site for more information.
