One health topics form the content for a rural middle school STEM-Promotion Project

The VMBS PEER (Partnerships for Environmental Education and Rural Health) program at Texas A&M University promotes STEM and provides veterinary students and undergraduate students with the opportunity to share their knowledge about One Health and veterinary medicine with K-12 students and teachers throughout Texas. The overall goal is to use students’ natural interest in animals and the environment to help motivate them to learn, excel, and someday pursue a career in science (STEM). 

A free, new, middle school standards-based, and remote-learning curriculum has been designed to be self-directed and interactive. Academic content of this curriculum is centered on the concept of One Health, which recognizes the interconnectedness among people, animals, and their shared environment. One health topics covered include: cell biology, infectious diseases, genetics, stress, ecology, and the clinical trials.
