JINA Art 2 Science Summer Camp

This camp is an extension of JINA’s Art 2 Science after-school programs which seek to ignite stellar imaginations through an integrated STEAM approach to learning. Participants learn about math, science, and engineering through creative hands-on projects including art projects. Activities are designed by collaborations with local artists, science teachers, and more! For more information, please visit http://www.jinaweb.org/outreach/artCamp/

Physics of Atomic Nuclei (PAN)

Physics of Atomic Nuclei (PAN) is an outreach program at two world leading nuclear physics laboratories: Nuclear Science Laboratory located on the campus of the University of Notre Dame and the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory located on the campus of Michigan State University. It is sponsored by the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics – Center for the Evolution of the Elements (JINA-CEE) and taught by NSL and NSCL faculty and staff. We welcome U.S. students who have completed at least one year of high school. The program introduces participants to the fundamentals of the extremely small domain of atomic nuclei and its connection to the extremely large domain of astrophysics and cosmology. Our week-long PAN program for teachers is taking a year hiatus and being replaced by weekend workshops at JINA-CEE institutions.For more information contact Micha Kilburn at mkilburn@nd.edu or look online at http://www.jinaweb.org/outreach/PAN/.

Quarknet

QuarkNet is a program which brings high school students and teachers into contact with particle physics at a very interactive and appropriate level. High school students can take on research in ongoing experiments with University researchers both undergraduate and educators. These students take an active role and will help complete a research project during their time in the program. The program also has online opportunities available to both educators and students. These include e-Labs and online Masterclasses which give the student or educator an easy entry into particle physics. If you have any questions about these programs, are curious to find out more, or are anxious to sign up, send an email to Prof. M. Wayne (mwayne@nd.edu) or go to https://quarknet.i2u2.org.
