Increasing Student Success in STEM Fields

October 28, 2013

The Federal government’s STEP program supports grassroots efforts to increase the number of students who enter and complete degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. Eric Grodsky studies the success of these projects to better understand student pathways to a STEM baccalaureate and the impact of different types of inventions on those pathways across diverse students and STEM fields. He collects data to uncover the mechanisms that underlie the success or failure of STEP projects. His research will lead to a data infrastructure suitable for expansion and replication. Read more.
