The Rural Science Education Program is a partnership between Oregon State University and local rural K-12 schools for enrichment of the science curriculum with hands-on science activities. The curricula includes simple and innovative inquiry and site-based experiments that encourages critical thinking in K-12 students about the impacts of agriculture on the environment, and the implications of advanced scientific research on human lives.
