Through STEM Convergence, we seek to transform the STEM ecosystem into an inclusive and accessible space where girls and women, especially from underserved communities, study, work, and thrive in healthy and supportive environments.

This program is “field-initiated” in that proposal submissions are not in response to a specific request for a particular research topic, discipline, design, or method. Our goal for this program is to support rigorous, intellectually ambitious and technically sound research that is relevant to the most pressing questions and compelling opportunities in education. We seek to support scholarship that develops new foundational knowledge that may have a lasting impact on educational discourse.
