Vision
All students at our institutions will be empowered and supported in their academic, professional, and personal goals during and beyond their early undergraduate STEM experiences.
Empowering Students
Real impact from our collaborative educational approach.
“It’s made me a better leader, it’s made me a better listener, it’s made me a better communicator.”
“My perspective as a student really does matter, and there are people who care about what I am experiencing.”
“Our professor really made it welcoming…the changes we proposed would actually have an effect.”
Supporting Educators
The SCIENCE Collaborative supports educators seeking to implement instructional practices guided by how students experience their learning environments. These strategies help students build momentum by offering meaningful opportunities to engage with content, practice skills, receive feedback, and demonstrate understanding.
Why these practices matter:
Transforming Institutions
We bring together educators, administrators, staff, and students from 14 institutions across the United States—from large research universities to regional comprehensives to specialized colleges.
What unites us is shared commitment, not institutional type. Our structure allows us to:
- Share knowledge rapidly across geographic and institutional boundaries
- Access expertise that might not exist at any single institution
- Learn from different contexts and adapt strategies for local needs
- Support each other through the challenges of implementing change
Why Partner With Us
The SCIENCE Collaborative is a vehicle to rapidly and strategically implement and scale evidence-based teaching practices. We are seeking and welcoming partners interested in our established programming and those looking to innovate and collaborate with our network.
