Joint Science Education Project
The Joint Science Education Project (JSEP) is an international collaboration between Greenland, the United States, and Denmark to educate and inspire the next generation of polar and STEM professionals. Since its initiation during the International Polar Year in 2007, high school and university students and teachers from the three countries work together to study polar environments and the human dimensions of rapid Arctic change. Students practice scientific and engineering methods in a cross cultural classroom with mentoring from international teachers and scientists. Funding for JSEP is provided by Naalakkersuisut (the Government of Greenland) and the U.S. National Science Foundation through a grant to Dartmouth College.
