STEM-Ed
Categories

The Office for the Advancement of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education (STEM-Ed), was created to support and assist existing STEM-Ed programs at CSULA in their effort to attract, retain and graduate students interested in STEM fields.

The STEM-Ed office is administered by the Office of Graduate Studies and Research and therefore provides additional information on graduate and pre-doctoral level programs, fellowships, and Ph.D. programs, and also provides student data collection and data retrieval for STEM-Ed departments; monitoring and recording of program trends and success rates; and an inter-program system of communicating information via newsletters and quarterly meetings.

Other services provided by the office include a resource library of scholarships, internships, summer programs, and research opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate students and part- and full-time faculty in STEM-Ed fields, as well as other fields of study.
