STEM Research Grants provide support to Middle and High School teachers engaging their students in authentic scientific research. Over 4 years, $440,000 has been awarded to 188 teachers. Priority consideration is given to schools that support students from low-income communities and demographics underrepresented in STEM fields.
In 2020, the Society for Science offered 100 teachers $1,000 worth of take-home STEM equipment to support students in completing independent science research projects. This year, we are continuing this option for 75 teachers and also allowing teachers to apply for up to $5,000 in order to purchase specialized equipment.
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.
