Space Huskies
Space Huskies provides hands-on learning experiences for fifth and sixth graders based on a joint NASA and National Endownment for the Arts curriculum. UW Bothell students serve as team leaders for groups of elementary school students during scheduled weekend workshops or in weekly classroom sessions, creating imaginative elements of a Mars community, based on real science.
Juanita Elementary School Teacher Buddies
For the past two years, the Education Program's teacher certification core literacy courses have been taught on-site at Juanita Elementary. A portion of each class period is devoted to a planned interaction between the UW Bothell "teacher buddies" and the Juanita Elementary students. These assignments primarily revolve around assessment and instruction of individual children at various levels.
Northshore Family Center
The programs of the Northshore Family Center are grounded in family support principles and focus on early learning, school readiness and success, after school opportunities for children and youth, parent support and skill-building, and community networks and capacity building. Many UW Bothell students have worked with the NFC over the years—donating 20 hours over one quarter to the center as part of their coursework.
Tent City 4
Building on ongoing collaboration between UW Bothell and Tent City 4—a semi-permanent homeless encampment in the Seattle suburbs run through democratic self-governance—a group of UW undergraduates undertook a community collaborative research project as part of UW's annual Summer Institute in the Arts and Humanities.
Restoration Ecology Network
Restoration Ecology Network (UW-REN) offers a 9-month Senior Capstone for UW Bothell students. In this capstone, students of different academic backgrounds from across the tri-campus UW system work together to complete a local restoration project.
Summer Environmental Education Days
The UW Bothell Summer Environmental Education Days (SEED) program is a two-week institute where K-12 teachers gain scientific knowledge and teaching strategies to help bring environmental concepts into their classrooms. A select number of UW Bothell Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences students work alongside participating teachers during the autumn of the following school year to create and implement lesson plans and projects which incorporate ideas developed during SEED.
Bellevue Entrepreneur Center
The BEC provides students with on-the-job experience and an opportunity to use skills learned in the classroom to help area businesses solve real problems. Students identify programs or projects such as strategic management plans, operation management, and applied projects within organizations.
Center for Student Entrepreneurship
The University of Washington Bothell Center for Student Entrepreneurship was established with the goal of helping our students become successful entrepreneurs, as creators of their own innovative startups or as major participants in small dynamic companies.
