The University of Wyoming Science Posse is a partnership of graduate students, UW faculty and 7th 12th grade teachers with a passion for science and education. Our current Posse includes PhD candidates researching topics in psychology, zoology and physiology, botany, ecology, paleontology, and mathematics. Traveling throughout the state, these scientists bring their research, materials, resources, and information to middle school and high school students and science teachers. In doing so, they hope to create excitement and interest in science and to inspire students to take more science and math classes and pursue careers in those areas. In addition, the Science Posse hosts cost free summer camps for students and summer professional development workshops for teachers. Support for the Science Posse comes from the National Science Foundation, a Science Education Partnership Award from the National Institutes of Health and the National Center for Research Resources, and the University of Wyoming.
