Andrews Institute is committed to a cycle of teaching and learning
in which teachers, students and university faculty learn new information

involves cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research as well outreach to the
community. The Institute provides a venue in which the
- exchange of ideas is fostered,
- laboratory space for piloting innovations is provided, and
- undergraduate and graduate student as co-researchers is expected.
