Welcome to Project GUTS



About Project GUTS
Project GUTS -- Growing Up Thinking Scientifically -- is a summer and after-school science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) program for middle school students based in Santa Fe, New Mexico and serving New Mexico. Growing up thinking scientifically means learning to look at the world and ask questions, develop answers to the questions through scientific inquiry, and design solutions to their problems. Project GUTS is hosted by the Santa Fe Institute and is funded by the National Science Foundation, the Los Alamos National Laboratory Foundation, the Bengier Foundation, the Los Alamos National Bank, Lockheed-Martin/Sandia Foundation, the New Mexico Public Education Department Math and Science Bureau, and by private donors.
