MISE
Welcome to the Institute
The George G. Mallinson Institute for Science Education is a research-oriented unit that is devoted to science education and to the study and improvement of how people teach and learn science. The Institute teaches undergraduate science courses for elementary education majors and offers two graduate degree programs. The Master’s in Science Education and Doctor of Philosophy in Science Education degrees are offered for teachers of science at both K-12 and college levels. For our graduate programs the Institute offers a series of science content and pedagogy courses via the Internet and summer workshops. The Mallinson Institute is also the home for SAMPI (Science and Mathematics Program Improvement), whose staff evaluate the efficacy of education programs, especially in mathematics and science.
