Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Wyoming's STEM Education Research Capacity Building Grants
The Wyoming Department of Education and the Wyoming Business Council are key partners in advancing STEM education research and development in the state. Wyoming's unique demographic and geographic characteristics, such as its large frontier counties and rural-urban divide, require tailored approaches to STEM education. The state's sparse population and limited resources can hinder the development of robust STEM education research capacity.
Target Outcomes for Wyoming's STEM Education Research Capacity Building Grants
Grants awarded under the ECR: BCSER program in Wyoming will focus on building investigators' capacity to conduct high-quality STEM education research that addresses the state's specific needs. The priority outcomes for these grants include:
- Improved STEM education outcomes in rural areas: Wyoming's rural and frontier counties face distinct challenges in providing high-quality STEM education. Successful projects will develop and test innovative solutions to improve STEM education outcomes in these areas.
- Enhanced research capacity at Wyoming's institutions of higher education: The state's institutions of higher education, such as the University of Wyoming, play a critical role in advancing STEM education research. Grants will support the development of research infrastructure and faculty expertise in STEM education.
- Increased collaboration between Wyoming's education and industry stakeholders: Effective STEM education research requires collaboration between educators, industry partners, and other stakeholders. Successful projects will foster partnerships between Wyoming's education and industry sectors to inform STEM education research and practice.
These priority outcomes align with the state's broader economic development goals, as outlined in the Wyoming Business Council's strategic plan. By building the capacity for high-quality STEM education research, Wyoming can better support the development of a skilled workforce and drive economic growth in key industries, such as energy and technology.
