About the Program

We are no longer accepting applications for this program during the 2012-13 school year.

Give your students a hands-on, facilitated science lesson during your MSI field trip by participating in a Learning Lab. Learning Labs are multi-disciplinary and aligned with state and national science learning standards. Labs are offered on Tuesday through Friday at 10:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. Learn more about our Learning Lab topics.

Economically disadvantaged schools are invited to apply for a maximum of two free Learning Labs for their students. Schools where a minimum of 51 percent of the student population qualify for free or reduced-price lunches through the Title I National School Lunch Program may participate. 

This program operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Funding for the year is limited; we are unable to accept any more applications for the 2012-13 school year. Funding is for Learning Labs only and cannot be used for Museum admission, programs, Omnimax films or exhibits or tours that require an additional charge.

Learning Lab scholarships are generously funded by
