Interdisciplinary Science and Research Program
The Interdisciplinary Science and Research Program is a partnership between the Vanderbilt Center for Science Outreach and Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools to enhance the understanding of STEM concepts and research principles of students and empowering teachers through scientific research. All courses are co-taught by a scientist-teacher team and focus on individualizing instruction to meet student needs.The program transitions students from basic understanding of scientific disciplines in the first year, to independent research in the junior and senior year. The Interdisciplinary Science and Research Program is elevating the learning and teaching of science, leading to students who are prepared to solve 21st century problems.
