It is often forgotten that the interest that drives advancement in the STEM fields is cultivated in the classroom. Today, we tip our hats to the teachers of the world that make Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics a possibility by announcing a special hands-on research experience on the JOIDES Resolution Drill Ship.

Over the course of this one-of-a-kind program, formally known as the Expedition for Earth and Ocean Science Educators, participants will “set sail and conduct hands-on analyses of cores and microbial samples with scientists and technicians who specialize in Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) research.”
