Our Mission

Creating Pathways for Success

How can we ensure all students—particularly those traditionally underserved—have access to excellent math and science education? At the Charles A. Dana Center at The University of Texas at Austin, this question has inspired our vision and guided our work for more than 20 years.

Every day, our team works with educators, administrators, policymakers, and other partners to dismantle barriers in education systems while creating and scaling the types of math and science education innovations that support student success.

Who We Are

Get to Know the Dana Center

The demand for people with strong mathematical and science skills has been steadily growing. Yet, too often, the education students receive today has not kept pace with the diverse ways mathematics and science are used in an ever-changing world.

That’s why the Charles A. Dana Center at The University of Texas at Austin works to dismantle barriers in education systems to ensure each and every student have access to and success in an excellent education.
