LHO RET

Teachers' Corner -- Teacher Internships at LIGO Hanford Observatory

LIGO hosts two teacher summer internships at each Observatory through the National Science Foundation's Research Experience for Teachers (RET) program. The six-week RET internships allow teachers to engage in LIGO-related research in collaboration with LIGO staff members. Participants also plan for the classroom implementation of a portion of their summer learning. Teachers from any level in the K-12 system are eligible to apply. Stipends are based on a teacher's currrent salary. For more information or for an application to the LHO RET program, send an email to outreach(at)ligo-wa.caltech.edu or call our outreach coordinator at 509-372-8248. The deadline for summer 2009 RET applications is March 20, 2009.
