Our Mission

The mission of Project SYNCERE (Supporting Youth's Needs with Core Engineering Research Experiments) is to increase the number of minority, female, and underserved students pursuing careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

Project SYNCERE provides a curriculum that integrates science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) through the use of project-based learning.

Project SYNCERE's staff assists and coaches students in scientific inquiry, directing them to deeper levels of understanding. These actions have helped students by raising their test scores, improving their critical thinking and problem solving skills and increasing their overall enthusiasm for school. Students use prior knowledge, specifically the use of technology, to solve real world problems. The goal is to produce successful self-directed learners who are equipped to excel in the global market.

Project SYNCERE is designed to serve students in grades K-12. Targeting the students in elementary school gives them a stronger scientific foundation and a head start in building a scientific career. Project SYNCERE will utilize the resources of the community, and work with target school’s administrative staff to implement our various programs.

Proper planning, recruitment, and selection are critical components of the program. It is essential that the program administrators reach and recruit those students who are in need and willing to make the most of the resources offered. We have put together a staff of young motivated instructors who are able to recruit and inspire students to keep them fully engaged throughout the year.
