Many of the future jobs in the USA will be in the area of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), but many first-year students have a difficult time making the transition from high school to university degrees in these fields.
Traditionally the first-year of college poses the greatest challenge to students majoring in these disciplines.
WMU is one of only a few Universities in the country that has been awarded a National Science Foundation STEM Talent Expansion Program (STEP) grant. The Focus of this grant is to improve the success rate for first year STEM students and ultimately increase the number of students that graduate with degrees in theses fields. The program at WMU will work with both students and faculty to improve success in STEM areas.
