The
Center for Imaging Science has an active, nationwide educational
outreach program. The goal of the program is to raise awareness of the
many opportunities available in the field of imaging science by working
cooperatively with educators to enhance the learning experience for
their students. Some of our offerings are available to educators
outside the Rochester area through the use of online learning
technologies. Please click on the links below for more information.
