Teacher Workshop 2008

NOTE: We are accepting applications for the summer 2009 workshop.  We encourage qualified teachers to register at any time as we have a roster forming already.  View class web site

This is an intensive Environmental Chemistry program, geared for science teachers in grades 7-12.   Priority is given to teachers in districts local to UC Irvine and to high school teachers.

The course is open to any qualifying teacher, but unfortunately AirUCI cannot provide assistance with lodging or transportation.  For teachers outside our area, you might visit http://www.housing.uci.edu/hoteluci to see if there is housing available on campus, but we cannot make these arrangements.

The course includes morning lectures presented by leading researchers in the field of Atmospheric Chemistry and afternoon environmental analysis projects in our labs. 

Attending teachers receive:

• A $1000 stipend
• University credit through UCI Extension
• Textbook
• Class materials in print and CD format
• Lunch each day
• Free parking
• Pairing with an AirUCI researcher for the school year
