The Research Experiences for Teachers at Notre Dame (RET@ND) program provides summer research opportunities for K-12 teachers in Notre Dame science and engineering laboratories. The 6-8 week program allows teachers to conduct research on important problems while developing classroom learning materials. Participating teachers receive a $6,200 stipend and continuing education credits. Past projects include constructing light sensors and evaluating fuel cell materials.
