About us

About Us

STEMxPolicy aims to bridge the knowledge translation gap between Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) fields and policymakers. Our goal is to educate STEM students on how STEM policy is created, empower them to get involved with policymaking, and expose them to new career paths. In short, we hope to help students see the intersection of STEM and policy. The x in our name signifies the intersection of STEM and policy and our efforts to bridge the gap.
