American Museum of Natural History - Seminars on Science


  • About Us

    Since 2000, Seminars on Science has engaged thousands of educators around the world in cutting-edge research and provided them with powerful classroom resources.

    The program offers twelve online graduate courses in the life, Earth, and physical sciences. Each course is rich in essays, images, videos, interactive simulations and vibrant discussions that connect learners to the Museum's scientists, laboratories, expeditions and specimens. Graduate credit is available for all courses through partnerships with eight colleges and universities.

    Independent evaluation shows that educators come away from Seminars on Science courses with a deeper understanding of science content and scientific inquiry, and put our digital resources to effective use in their classrooms. They also prefer Seminars on Science to locally available professional development programs.
