The Carleton Interdisciplinary Science & Math Initiative (CISMI) website has not been significantly updated since 2011. We are preserving the webpages here because they still contain useful ideas and content. But be aware that it may have out of date information.
CISMI was replaced by the Carleton Integrated Math & Science initiative.

CISMI & HHMI Grant Collaborators

CISMI works collaboratively with Carleton staff in a number of offices on campus in order to include staff perspectives in our work. Collaborations also support project assessment and dissemination and help to integrate student support services and fundraising with our efforts. Additionally, we also work with faculty and staff at several other institutions on projects connected to our HHMI grant.
