Outreach

Research plays a pivotal role in science education and we encourage high school and undergraduate students to be involved with research as early as possible. Our group hosts students from the area during summer and academic year. Please contact Professor Jorabchi if you are interested in being part of our team or would like to have an independent research project supervised by Jorabchi group.

Below are examples of our group’s involvement with broader community of science education.
