The Radiology Outreach Program, or SEED (Science Education Enrichment for Diversity), aims to increase interest in STEM in a group of young under-represented minority students. We collaborate with a local teacher to facilitate in-class hands-on science lessons for local students to help them see themselves as future scientists and thereby increase under-represented-minorities in STEM.

Structure:

• 4-6 lessons per year
• Partner with a single teacher responsible for 4-8 classes 

Seeking:

• Volunteers to help with in-class lessons. 
• No prior experience required, we will provide training 

Benefit of Participating:

• Better understand educational inequality in the American education system. 
• Learn about challenges faced by under-represented-minority students .
• Gain confidence presenting your research to a young audience.
• Opportunity to mentor promising young students.
• Experience working with communities different from your own. 
• Illustrate your own unique path to STEM for other students to draw from.
• It is fun and rewarding! 

Time Commitment: 

~8 hours/quarter
