Looking at the View

ABOUT US

TSoG was founded in 2013 with a vision that world-class science education should be available to all students of all ages. Since 2015, The Shoulders of Giants has offered immersive, ongoing mentorship programs for dedicated students who would like the opportunity to study more closely under the guidance of Dr. Steven J. Foland.

MISSION: To share the thrill of scientific Discovery

VISION: To strengthen communities by providing future leaders with a firm foundation in mathematics, science, and engineering.

TESTIMONIALS

Two of the many things I appreciate about TSoG are it’s creativity and flexibility. Regarding creativity, I love how cutting-edge the program is and the variety of formats students can use to learn the lesson material, from digital lectures to in-person experiments. Regarding flexibility, I believe this program is truly for anyone, from the curious investigator to the dedicated academic. During my time in the program, I valued the time Dr. Foland spent investing in me as well as the relationships I made and unique projects I was able to work on.
