Center for STEM Excellence

We partner with students and instructors to support excellence in STEM teaching and learning. All services are free to current EKU students learning in any STEM courses and programs. Our resources include drop-in learning (tutoring) and skill-building workshops in science, technology, engineering, and math courses.

Mission Statement
The Center for STEM Excellence initiatives exist to expand access to and support excellence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics teaching and learning experiences at EKU.

Vision
All EKU students will have the resources they need to excel in their STEM courses and programs and to become STEM-literate global citizens, equipped for excellence.
