Education and Public Outreach Overview
 

Unique to Hampton University is the partnership between the Center for Atmospheric Sciences (CAS) and the Interdisciplinary Science Center (ISC) that provide exemplary education and public outreach programs. This collaboration provides a connection between the scientists of CAS and the science educators of the ISC that extends to the K-14 education community and informal science education organizations. The scientists at CAS currently serve as Principal Investigators (PIs) on a number of NASA missions, while the educators of the ISC have a national reputation for science education enhancement programs.

Outreach Activities include:

  • teacher workshops;
  • middle-school camps and field trips;
  • high-school mentorships;
  • after-school science clubs; and
  • live-event videoconferences.
