The STEM Guitar Project provides innovative professional development to faculty instructing from middle school  to college;  we focus our efforts at the high school and community college levels. 

Middle School through University faculty will take part in an intense five day guitar design/build project. Each faculty member will build his/her own custom electric guitar and will engage in student centered learning activities that relate the guitar design to specific math, science and engineering topics that are linked to national / state standards. 

Participants will leave this week long experience with their custom-made guitars, curriculum modules with  online short term assessments that can be immediately integrated into the faculty’s curriculum, and much more. This is an NSF funded institute with a value well over $2000 per person.  For full compensation/ institute fellowship value  visit our application pages on www.guitarbuilding.org.
