Math and Science Teacher Initiative (MSTI)
About
The Math and Science Teacher Initiative (MSTI) provides support for students and inservice teachers to network in the math and science teaching community, and offers great opportunities to attend professional development. MSTI is part of a CSU system-wide project to increase math and science teachers, and will play a big role in addressing math and science teacher shortage.
