Who We Are

Curious Mind @ UCLA is a student organization dedicated to cultivating a love for science among high school students. We do so by hosting themed in-person seminars, teaching at local high schools, providing mentorships, and running student-led collaborative projects. All of our activities and events are designed to offer high school students, especially those from underrepresented background in science, unparalleled learning opportunities beyond the scope of traditional science textbooks. The ultimate goal of this organization is to give young scholars a true taste of what it is to have a career in science and, more importantly, to help them feel confident that they can contribute to shaping a better future in the science community. 

Mission 

Curious Mind @ UCLA is committed to igniting scientific passion and dismantling barriers in STEM education. We empower high school students by providing immersive, accessible learning experiences that transform science from an intimidating discipline into an exciting journey of discovery. Through dynamic interactive classes, personalized mentorship, and innovative engagement strategies, we create an inclusive environment where curiosity thrives and every student can envision themselves as a future scientist, researcher, or innovator.
