For Teachers
The University of Maine and the University of Maine at Machias welcome teachers and schools for class visits, special events, workshops and professional development throughout the year. We aim to inspire a lifelong enthusiasm for learning and provide a positive, empowering environment for educators and youth who visit our campuses and other facilities.
