What We’re Doing


Strengthening Regional STEM Networks

We are developing regional STEM networks in partnership with the Minnesota Cooperatives. We’re providing the tools and resources for regions to implement place-based STEM programming that is integrates hands-on, experiential learning and workforce development.

Creating Statewide Strategies

Through our cross-system, cross-sector Council on STEM Learning and Workforce Development that includes government, educators, employers, non-profits and other stakeholders; we can identify evidence-based strategies to address learning and workforce opportunity gaps.

Investing in Programs that Work

As part of the historic investment from the Minnesota Legislature, the Minnesota STEM Ecosystem Partnership Grant Program is designed to expand access to high-quality STEM learning experiences and workforce development in emerging technologies and in-demand career pathways.
