Research Experience for Teachers

As part of our 2004-2006 REU program, we have significant funding to support 3-6 K-12 teachers of science, mathematics, or engineering for an immersion research experience during each summer.  The research period should be a minimum of five weeks and can be up to 10 weeks with the salary pro-rated to the research time and at the participant's current salary level.  If you are interested in participating, either alone or as a team with one of your students, please submit a letter of application directly to Professor Grabowski by email (joeg@pitt.edu) and attach a copy of your current resume.  The letter should address the benefits of the RET experience for you, should identify three of our projects that you would be interested in working on (projects are available on the web site:  http://www.chem.pitt.edu/reu), should suggest preferred dates, and should include two references that can be contacted if necessary.  Applications are being accepted immediately and will be reviewed as received; it is expected that no more than two teachers will participate each summer.  Any questions can be directed to Professor Grabowski either by email or by phone (412-624-8632) though initial email contact is preferred.
