We offer a suite of programs for students and faculty members across the state that are focused on transforming science teaching at all educational levels (K-16), mentoring in research, and stimulating research collaboration and grant funding.
Programs
The SI’s centralized educational and research facilities form an innovation nexus to stimulate external funding, research productivity, and innovations in teaching practice, training the next generation of Wyoming science scholars, teachers, and researchers.
Facilities
Through engaging active learning techniques, UW students and faculty bring STE(A)M education to K-12 schools and Wyoming communities.
Engagement
The University of Wyoming's Science Initiative enables world-class research and education that strengthens the foundations of Wyoming's present and future economy. Through integrated, interdisciplinary science, Wyoming's current and future researchers and entrepreneurs are revolutionizing areas of Wyoming's economy including mineral extraction, agriculture, tourism, resource management, and emerging technology, while also preserving Wyoming's greatest natural resources and unique biodiversity. The Science initiative provides UW students with a flexible, pioneering skill set, giving them the resources to invent a Wyoming future whose details cannot be fully known.
