Quarknet

QuarkNet is an educational program sponsored by the National Science Foundation whose aim is to support science education in schools by establishing a nation-wide science teacher network. It provides opportunities for school science teachers to learn firsthand about frontline physics research in universities, and establish mentor relationships between science teachers and physics professors at universities.

Florida Tech is a QuarkNet center which has held several annual workshops. If interested please contact Dr. Laszlo Baksay or call the department office at (321) 674-8098.
