Aspirnaut Program
Founded in 2006 by two Vanderbilt faculty members, the program was launched as an online-learning-on-the-bus initiative in rural, Arkansas in 2006. Since the first pilot on rural school bus routes where students completed online curriculum, Aspirnaut™ has evolved to a K-20 STEM program that partners the experiential and content expertise of Vanderbilt University Medical Center with rural K-12 schools and talented high school, undergraduate, and graduate students. http://www.aspirnaut.org/
