Partnerships to Build STEM Resources in North Dakota
First released in August 2021, the Partnerships to Build STEM Resources in North Dakota document compiles a variety of information related to informal and formal K-12 education in North Dakota (ND); from ND EPSCoR State Office K-12 survey results, ND Department of Public Instruction (DPI) Statewide Longitudinal Data System (SLDS) data, current K-12 ND EPSCoR State Office partnerships, and K-12 outreach and or engagement opportunities available at higher education institutions.
Partnerships to Build STEM Capacity
First released in 2016 (updated in 2021), this document was created to help faculty looking to partner with others to increase STEM research/education capacity within higher education institutions across ND. The Partnerships to Build STEM Capacity in North Dakota document also helps the North Dakota Established Program to Simulate Competitive Research (ND EPSCoR) State Office pursue it’s mission to provide leadership and coordination to broaden and diversify ND's science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce pathway from elementary through graduate school; support and grow statewide STEM research efforts (capacity and competitiveness) at participating institutions of higher education, particularly among early career faculty; and, convey the impact of STEM research, outreach, and workforce efforts to ND stakeholders. The up-to-data in this document aids the:
- Preparation of STEM proposals by faculty at institutions in ND to external agencies or sponsors,
- Formation of faculty research and educational partnerships/collaborations between institutions, and
- Establishment of priorities for STEM research and outreach calls for proposals and funding issued by the ND EPSCoR State Office
