Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) Applications Now Available

The Research Experiences for Teachers Program (RET) is a comprehensive six-week summer research program at Northeastern University that offers teachers a wonderful opportunity to participate in active research projects in professional laboratory settings. Teachers are encouraged to make real connections between the research experience and their classroom curricula as well as create research-based curriculum units that are aligned with local, state, and national frameworks, as well as their own research experience. Participants will also have the opportunity to take part in weekly research seminars, special training sessions, professional development meetings, field trips, and network with other district teachers and university faculty.

Please click here for the 2012 application.

The deadline for submission is March 20, 2012. For more information and/or questions on RET, please contact Claire Duggan, Program Director, at c.duggan@neu.edu and/or visit the RET web site at http://www.ret.neu.edu/ .

Tentative program dates for the RET are June 25th – August 2, 2012. 

RET participants will be required to attend several Saturday morning sessions prior to the start of the summer program.
