About

STEM-NM is a dynamic network of cross-sector partners committed to making real impact on STEM education and degree attainment in the Albuquerque metropolitan area. Our vision is that all residents of central New Mexico will have access to a highly coordinated and comprehensive system of support to increase their awareness and understanding of science, technology, engineering, math, and health (STEM-H); all students in central New Mexico will engage in high-quality systematic STEM-H educational and career-oriented experiences, both in school and out of school; and all students with an interest in STEM-H fields will persist through a STEM-H course of study.
