PEER

Home

Welcome to the Scienceland wiki page for PEER (Partnership for Education, Engineering, and Research).

PEER is a network of schools and research groups whereby students can learn about how science is done by working on research projects with people in the field. Our goal is to get students involved science and engineering through academic labs and [|citizen science projects]. We are also working to establish [|makerspaces] for students via our partnership with [|LA Young Makers].
