Southern Illinois University Edwardsville established the STEM Center as a central hub to support innovative science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) research, education, and outreach at the University. Since then, we have worked to build teams of researchers and educators who implement STEM education programming, provide students and educators with access to STEM resources and equipment, and facilitate creative and effective ways of STEM teaching and learning in PreK-12 and higher education classrooms and beyond. Cub Scouts will utilize these resources to gain knowledge, advancement, and a college campus experience!
