Welcome to STEM@SVSU — Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics

Our purpose is to develop a STEM talent pipeline to meet the current and future needs of the Great Lakes Bay Area by:

  • Providing professional development for STEM teachers
  • Engaging STEM professionals to enhance STEM learning
  • Increasing experiential learning for students at all grade levels
