Resources for Educators and PTEC/PhysTEC Institutions

We have been developing and adapting materials and resources for recruiting and training physics majors and physics teachers that may be of use to other institutions, and especially to other PhysTEC/PTEC institutions. We have a large online archive of information available through this site, documenting almost every aspect of our PhysTEC effort, including recruiting methods and materials, UTA program materials, evaluation forms, surveys, and materials for pre- and post-testing in introductory physics courses.

Grants & Financial Aid

The federal and state governments fund many programs to help students become scientists and science teachers.
