Research. Question. Create. Innovate. The study of STEM is about asking questions and finding creative answers. You’ll do that here.
At the College of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics we encourage students to be curious and analytical, to work to figure things out and then to use that knowledge to make things better. We believe you’ll learn more from doing:
- Research opportunities as an undergraduate
- Scholarly activity at professional conferences
- Published research and publications
- Faculty-led projects and mentorship
- Networking at professional organizations
STEM programs are challenging, but STEM students are ready to rise to the challenge. They know the programs are worth the payoff realized in high demand career fields.
