Rice University Office of STEM Engagement
Established in 2006, the Rice Office of STEM Engagement (R-STEM) supports and promotes Rice University’s wide-ranging efforts to improve K-12 STEM education in the Greater Houston area. R-STEM is proud to be part of the Office of Research and serves as the central point of contact for school districts, parents, students, organizations, faculty, and others interested in Rice STEM outreach programs and events.
Our mission is to build STEM knowledge, skills, and leadership by providing innovative pre-K through career STEM learning experiences and enhancing the broader impacts of Rice University’s research.
Our vision is that all students receive a STEM education that empowers them to become the STEM leaders of tomorrow.
