  1. Education, Human Resource Development (EHRD) and Diversity Activities Materials: An Applied, Project-Based High School Science Option Andrew Bruening, Katharine Flores, Glenn Daehn In collaboration with OSU and the ASM Education Foundation, the CEM is supporting curriculum development and teacher education programs to bring materials science to high schools in Ohio and throughout the country. • Why Teach Materials Science in High School? • Applied, hands-on topic integrates chemistry, physics, and engineering. • Attractive to students with a wide range of interests and capabilities who might not be interested in traditional science courses; broadens the pool of students interested in pursuing STEM. • Clearly connects to high-need and emerging career paths, including energy and biomedical. • Resonates with students from underrepresented groups and low-income school districts. An NSF Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) Supported under NSF Award Number DMR-0820414
