Auburn University's Cellular & Molecular Biosciences (AU-CMB) Program and NSF EPSCoR-Center for Enviromental and Cellular Signal Transduction (CECST) is proud to announce the Teaching Enhancement Award (TEA) program, summer scholarship awards to Alabama High School Science Teacher/Student pairs.
The TEA Program was established to raise the level of enthusiasm of both high school students and their teachers for careers in science.

The program will expose teachers and students to experimental exercises that they can take back to the classroom.

Teachers will receive 4 CEU credits

2) Students must have two letters of recommendation sent to the AU-CMB office before the application (date to be announced). One letter must be from the your teacher pair, and the other letter can be from another teacher or guidance counselor
