Apply for the Science Communication and Outreach Training Program

Application deadline: Monday, September 4, 2023

Application opens August 15, 2023

MSU’s STEM Ambassador Program (STEMAP) is recruiting MSU participants for a six-month science engagement program. Funded by the National Science Foundation, STEMAP is designed to promote open-minded exchange between members of the public and the scientific community. Through workshops, peer learning, and one-on-one mentoring, participants will learn how to establish two-way communication and build trust between scientists and public audiences who are less likely to visit typical informal science education venues (e.g., museums and science festivals).

Participants will gain new public engagement skills and demonstrated broader impacts experience to cite in their NSF grant applications.

Who can apply?

MSU faculty, research staff, postdocs, and graduate students are welcome to apply. Applicants must have an active program of STEM-based research.
