Description
The STEM Action Center was established in 2013 by the Utah Legislature to foster cohesion,
collaboration and equity for STEM education and support greater connection of industry and
business partners to educational efforts.
The Center, as an intermediary organization, plays a critical role for disruptive innovation in
STEM education while maintaining accountability and agility. This optimizes partnerships
