NCI Scientists in the Community
Get involved in science education and outreach
NCI is launching a science education and outreach program to connect scientists with schools in the community. The program aims to enhance our next generation of scientists STEM experiences in middle and high school, while empowering teachers to provide high-quality science education.
Work on your science communication skills
Volunteers will develop their skills in communicating science clearly to individuals of all ages and scientific backgrounds. Opportunities will range from talking to middle school and high school students about your education and research experiences to providing workshops science teachers.
Give back to the community
Support science education for youth in the D.C.-Maryland-Virginia area. Volunteers can help inspire passion for science as well as understanding of scientific methods and principles, which can be used in many areas of life.
Gain insight into careers in science outreach and program management
Volunteers can gain valuable experience and insight into science outreach careers by both organizing and participating in outreach events.
