STEM Research Grants
STEM Research Grants provide support to middle school and high school teachers engaging their students in authentic scientific research. Over 3 years, $340,000 has been awarded to 88 teachers. Priority consideration is given to schools who support low income students and students underrepresented in STEM fields.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year the Society for Science & the Public will be offering 100 teachers $1,000 each to select from a variety of take-home kits to support students in completing independent science research projects.
For the purposes of this grant, a research project is defined as an independent investigation by a student involving experimentation to answer a scientific question outside of regular classwork. Independent research projects are frequently entered into science fairs and other competitions.
