UTeach Outreach

UTeach Outreach is a program housed in the College of Natural Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin. The program aims to change the world, one future scientist at a time, by inspiring students to take an active interest in science and to make our parents and teachers into more scientific educators. UTeach Outreach is a branch of UTeach, a premiere national teacher certification program that prepares University students to become science, engineering, mathematics, or computer science teachers. Launched more than a decade ago, Outreach began as a course that sent UT students into the community to assist teachers by engaging K-6th grade students with UTeach Primary lessons. Today, Outreach works on many projects in addition to the UTeach Outreach course, including a teacher preparation academy, UT student-led after-school clubs, summer camps, tutoring, student support, and hands-on activities at a variety of community and University events every semester
