Community Outreach

Community Outreach and Programming

In continuing to uphold education as a central mission of the department, we commit to further addressing disparities within our community outreach and programming. We plan to expand our long-running high school summer internship program, continue to participate in science fair opportunities at local schools, and explore additional funding opportunities to sustain STEM training grants. In addition, we are developing informational programs to educate lay members of the community on matters related to vaccination and public health, both critically important during the current COVID-19 pandemic.

The team, consisting of Drs. Subbarao Bondada (Chair), Joseph McGillis, Anthony Sinai, Jacqueline Rivas, Ms. Jamila Tucker and Ms. Tanya Myers-Morales, is a listening forum for any ideas or issues regarding community outreach and programming in the department. Please contact any member with your novel suggestions or issues.
