What is the Rocky Mountain Regional Center of Small-Scale Chemistry?
This center is part of a national effort to promote a chemical education philosophy which emphasizes “Green Chemistry”. It does so by sponsoring seminars and workshops on small-scale chemistry. These free workshops introduce small-scale chemistry concepts and techniques to local educators through participation in laboratory experiments, lectures, discussions, and demonstrations. This Regional Center was established through the collaborative efforts of: • Colorado Mountain College • The Environmental Protection Office of Pollution-Prevention Technology Education • The Partnership for Environmental Technology Education (PETE) • Colorado State University Center for Science, Mathematics and Technology (CSMATE) The Rocky Mountain Regional Center is directed by Dr. Peter Jeschofnig, Professor of Science at Colorado Mountain College. It represents the South-Central PETE region which covers Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Colorado. Places To Visit ( Click one of the follo
