STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics)
Our research is looking at how to foster a mutually beneficial relationship of the five disciplines of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) education, to inspire intellectual inquiry and critical thinking. We are particularly interested to learn how art and the sciences can inform each other to further the field of art conservation.
Collaborative Grants
The National Science Foundation-funded Partnership for International Research and Education (PIRE) supports the CuBISM graduate educational program (Computationally-Based Imaging of Structure in Materials). This graduate program is a partnership among five institutions: Northwestern University, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Rijksmuseum and the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, the National Research Council in Italy, and the Synchrotron Soleil in France. The Searle Center plays a key role in assessment and evaluation of the program’s educational component.
