The Center for Science Education & the Environment
Shared by the Lourdes University Environmental Science
Program and the Department of Education, the CSEE offers
inquiry-based science activities to enhance content
knowledge, science process skills and science pedagogy
skills for Lourdes students, professional teachers, and P-12
students in the local community.
The Center provides an ecological atmosphere for a variety
of programs that encourages the Naturalist Intelligence in
students of all ages as well as professional teachers,
enabling them to touch the Franciscan spirit through
academic and societal learning experiences. P-12 programs
include community events for families, special classes,
summer camp and Science-on-Wheels, an opportunity to bring
innovative environmental science curriculum to P-12 schools.
Programs for professional teachers include workshops, the
development of a summer institute, and an environmental
science resource center. Lourdes University environmental
science students and pre-service teachers as well as
community members are pivotal in developing and delivering
these programs.
