Are you an ocean scientist who would like assistance engaging in educational outreach and achieving broader impacts? The COSEE Network will help you connect with educators in order to build meaningful educational collaborations. Through events and programs, we help scientists create and sustain collaborations with educators that efficiently and effectively translate research into high-quality resources such as the COSEE "Education and Public Outreach: A Guide for Scientists".

The COSEE Network works to provide guidance for scientists who may ask:
