The Center for Science & Engineering Education (CSEE) carries out the Laboratory's education mission to train the next generation of scientists and engineers.

Links to the left will bring the reader to information about CSEE programs and resources for students, teachers, faculty, public, and Lab staff

CSEE's Goals:

  • To promote equal access to scientific and technical careers for all students, including women, minorities, the handicapped, and the economically disadvantaged.

  • To improve the quality of science and engineering teaching by supporting increased classroom emphasis on the scientific process and frontier science and technology.

  • To increase the number of U. S. students who become scientists and engineers by developing and implementing strategies to provide continuity of opportunity from elementary school through graduate school.

  • To promote scientific literacy, including an understanding of relationships among frontier science, technology, and society.

CSEE's Objectives are to:

  • develop, implement, and evaluate programs that utilize the resources of Berkeley Lab to improve the quality of mathematics, science, and technology education.

  • support projects and activities for public science and technology literacy, pre-college (K-12), community college, undergraduate, and graduate education.

  • serve as Berkeley Lab's center for science and engineering education programming and coordination, and for the formation of partnerships with schools, science and technology education centers, and organizations.
