Interested in mentoring the next wave of researchers and improving high school STEM education? Get involved with the Discovery program this fall!
The Discovery program at the University of Toronto is seeking mentors for its upcoming Fall 2025 session (October 2025 to January 2026). This initiative targets high schools with fewer educational resources, offering students a chance to engage in university-level STEM projects. In partnership with high school educators from the Toronto District School Board, participating students work in teams to design and execute experiments to solve real-world problems.
We are currently recruiting graduate student mentors to help guide high school students through their iterative designs. As a mentor, you’ll guide students through capstone projects, helping them apply their scientific knowledge in a hands-on, inquiry-based environment. You will also have the chance to gain skills and experience for future teaching opportunities, connect with fellow mentors, and share your passion for research with students!
Mentoring with Discovery is open to all graduate students! For more details, visit uoftdiscovery.ca or reach out via email to discovery@utoronto.ca.
We look forward to seeing you at Discovery!
