在美国国家科学基金会的支持下，科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的GK - 12研究员项目为工程研究生探索创新的方法，以工程为载体，提供K - 12课堂教学和实践经验，将物理科学、数学、工程和技术相结合。工程“研究员”填补了工程与应用科学学院与K - 12学习者社区之间双向内容和教学交流的重要空白。在K - 12课堂上，现实世界中工程角色榜样的积极存在提高了数学和科学内容的质量，并将工程作为一种潜在的职业道路介绍给教师和年轻学生。通过大学的研究生课程工作，使K - 12外展成为研究生有效且令人满意的学术努力。
Supported by the National Science Foundation, the GK‐12 Fellows program at the University of Colorado at Boulder explores innovative ways for engineering graduate students to use engineering as the vehicle to provide K‐12 classroom instruction and hands‐on experiences that integrate physical sciences, mathematics, engineering and technology. Engineering “Fellows” fill a crucial gap in the two‐way exchange of content and pedagogy between the College of Engineering and Applied Science and the K‐12 community of learners. The active presence of real world, engineering role models in K‐12 classrooms improves the quality of math and science content, and introduces engineering to teachers and young students as a potential career path. Working through the University's graduate program legitimizes K‐12 outreach as a valid, and satisfying, academic endeavor for graduate students.
