What We Do

We offer several innovative programs and activities that benefit a wide range of people here in Utah: Teachers and Students, Scientists and Kids. Everything we do is meant to promote the many benefits and joy that a solid math and science education bring.

For Teachers

Most of what we do caters to the teacher. Helping them be better math and science teachers is one of our main goals.

For Students

Helping students acheive a higher understanding of mathematics and science, and the benefits of knowing those general subjects well.

For Kids

We do a lot of things aimed at kids—to get them excited about science and math.

For Scientists

We offer a few programs made especially for real-world scientists.

For The Community

We all benefit from science & math. Here are the things we do for our communities across Utah.

For Ourselves

Once in a while we get together for mountain retreats, parties and gatherings to network and chat about the things we love—namely science and math.
