Committee on STEM Education

Overview
The Committee on STEM Education (CoSTEM), comprised of 13 agencies &mdash; including all of the mission-science agencies and the Department of Education &mdash; are facilitating a cohesive national strategy, with new and repurposed funds, to increase the impact of federal investments in five areas: 1) improving STEM instruction in preschool through 12th grade; 2) increasing and sustaining public and youth engagement with STEM; 3) improving the STEM experience for undergraduate students; 4) better serving groups historically underrepresented in STEM fields; and 5) designing graduate education for tomorrow's STEM workforce.
