Role Models in STEM
In collaboration with the Manchester Historic Association, the SEE Science Center presents these short oral histories of individuals working Science, Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) with connections to Manchester, NH. We hope these diverse stories will allow today’s students, to see themselves as part of a growing and vibrant city and to consider local STEM career opportunities. This project was made possible with support from New Hampshire Humanities, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Humanities.
Middle School Lesson Plans
The SEE Science Center has joined the public-private Manufacturing USA initiative, called the Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI) to inspire youth to explore opportunities in Regenerative Manufacturing & Biofabrication.

Historical Scientist Portraits
Learn about 17 historical figures by exploring this unique collection of original portraits of scientists and engineers by artist Jack Kamen (1920-2008).
The SEE Science Center is pleased to present a series of 17 original portraits of scientists and engineers. These portraits were commissioned by Dean Kamen especially for the SEE Science Center to inspire children. The artist is Jack Kamen (1920-2008), an American graphic artist and Dean’s father. The series features scientists and engineers whose work changed the world. While many of the pieces represent men, the duo worked hard to identify female scientists. Had Jack not passed, their goal was to continue to increase representation within the collection. The original artwork is on display at the SEE Science Center in the Jack Kamen Portrait Gallery.
You can explore the collection online in three different languages.
