We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

• OUR SEMINAR PROGRAM EMPHASIZES BOTH THE NATURE AND THE PROCESS OF SCIENCE. THESE ARE TWO DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF SCIENCE. THE NATURE OF SCIENCE DEALS WITH ISSUES IN THE PHILOSOPHY, SOCIOLOGY, AND HISTORY OF SCIENCE. IT INCLUDES CONCERNS, SUCH AS THE NATURE OR ATTRIBUTES OF SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE ITSELF - E.G., THAT SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE IS DURABLE, BUT IS ALWAYS INHERENTLY SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE PROCESS OF SCIENCE ADDRESSES WHAT SCIENTISTS DO IN ORDER TO DEVELOP THAT KNOWLEDGE. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE SEMINAR RESEARCH PROGRAM IS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING CONCEPTS TO EQUIP STUDENTS WITH FUNDAMENTAL KNOWLEDGE THAT STUDENTS NEED TO SUCCEED.OUR SEMINAR RESEARCH PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD ON AN INTEREST IN RESEARCH / ENGINEERING AND DEVELOP SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE AND ANALYTICS CRITICAL TO SUCCESS. EACH STUDENT PURSUES A TOPIC (OR TOPICS) OF HIS / HER OWN INTEREST IN A REAL LAB SITUATION, PAIRED WITH A SCIENTIST / ENGINEER MENTOR WHO HAS EXPERIENCE IN THE CHOSEN RESEARCH FIELD. THE SEMINAR INCLUDES TRAINING IN LAB SAFETY, LITERATURE RESEARCH, LAB NOTEBOOK DOCUMENTATION, AND LABORATORY TECHNIQUES AND DATA ANALYSIS. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE SEMINAR RESEARCH PROGRAM IS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING BY LEARNING THE EIGHT ESSENTIAL PRACTICES OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING.SEMINAR PARTICIPANTS WILL ALSO BENEFIT FROM CONTEXTUAL AND HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SPECIFIC SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS AND THE FORWARD LOOKING RELEVANCE TO ONGOING EXPLORATION AND RESEARCH. OUR PROGRAM EXTENDS WELL BEYOND THAT TOPIC TO ADDRESS A SET OF CAPABILITIES AND EXPERIENCES THAT WILL BE VALUABLE IN ALL MANNER OF FUTURE ENDEAVORS AND RESPONSIBILITIES. SSW HAS ALSO DONATED SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT TO NONPROFITS, INCLUDING GILROY HIGH SCHOOL AND GOODWILL TO SUPPORT STUDENTS.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
