Bioeducation Reform
Elevating Academic Experiences.
Building a talent-powered economy for the bioscience industry starts in our secondary schools, where more emphasis on science and technology is needed. The Memphis Bioworks Foundation has worked with academic leaders to make course requirements more demanding and more in line with the expectations of potential bioscience jobs.
Our most significant accomplishment to date is the founding of the Memphis Academy of Science and Engineerin (MASE). Established in 2003 as the first State of Tennessee charter school, MASE has open enrollment and no tuition.
At MASE, the selection of science, engineering mathematics, and technology courses are broader and deeper than in any other school in the region. The curriculum is unique compared to other schools in Memphis and also other science and math schools across the nation. MASE is a model for public education and helps position Memphis as a more attractive city with which to do business.
