About RET

Overview

The RET site will bring together 36 high school in-service and pre-service STEM teachers from independent school districts (ISDs) nearby Arlington, TX. Seven ISD partners, all within close proximity to UTA, have committed to participate, as follows: Arlington, Duncanville, Everman, Grand Prairie, Irving, Kennedale and Mansfield. A total of (six) research projects have been identified for target teacher participation. The common theme of the RET site is Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure for Urban Communities. All proposed research projects have this theme in their set-up, potential tasks and impact.
