Education and Outreach

The COMPRES Central Office conducts education and outreach in collaboration with the Earth Science Educational Resource Center (ESERC), which is administered by the Mineral Physics Institute (MPI) at Stony Brook University.

Jackie Li and Harry Green were selected as
COMPRES Distinguished Lecturers for 2009-2010.
Wendy Mao and David Walker were
COMPRES Distinguished Lecturers in 2008-2009.

In a collaboration between COMPRES and the On the Cutting Edge program for professional development of geoscience faculty, we are soliciting your contributions to a new collection of web-based instructional resources related to Teaching Mineral Physics Across the Curriculum.

The COMPRES Image Library serves images for use in education and research.

The illustrations here are from a program entitled "Let's Make Diamonds!" in which students conduct an experiment to convert graphite to diamond.
