The S&T campus is bustling with activity and learning this summer as approximately 600 elementary, middle and high school teachers from around the U.S. are visiting to learn how to better teach engineering, computer science and biomedical science.
The teachers are involved in Project Lead The Way (PLTW), a national effort to get more youth interested in and prepared to study engineering and science related fields in college. Missouri S&T is the state affiliate for PLTW and offers teacher training in several science, technology and engineering fields.
