DMSE

Science and Engineering Program for Middle School Students

Since 1992, the Glass Lab has collaborated with MIT’s Center for Material Science and Engineering (CMSE), and a NSF- funded program created to introduce young adolescents to the field of materials science and engineering. Every summer several groups of boys and girls from Cambridge public middle schools come to the Glass Lab, where they get hands-on experience designing and making their own objects in molten glass. For more information, visit the CMSE website.
