Federal STEM Education Inventory Highlighted

Today, OSTP Associate Director for Science Carl Wieman provided initial results from the most thorough inventory yet of Federal educational programs designed to boost teacher skills and student learning in science, engineering, technology, and mathematics (STEM).  The inventory, compiled by OSTP, is one of a number of White House initiatives helping to fulfill President Obama’s commitment to raise American students from the middle to the top of the pack in STEM subjects, and to better prepare today’s students for 21st century jobs and careers.
