Our mission is to provide mentored research experiences to undergraduates in all disciplines and provide outreach in the community through support of research at Miami Dade College and in the public/private K-12 school systems.

Our community outreach to middle schools, public and private high schools, and Miami-Dade College consists of summer and academic year programs designed to encourage more student diversity in science. 

These programs provide dynamic and exciting mentored research experiences for young students and for community college students that help to prepare them for further education in science and related fields.  Contact our  program coordinator if you are a student or a parent interested in finding out more about our undergraduate research programs or our community outreach programs.
