STEM Education
The STEM Education cluster includes both STEM Ed researchers and faculty who practice
innovative and engaged pedagogy in the delivery of their courses. Faculty in this
cluster also manage the various department teaching labs and mentor students in the
HHMI supported SEA PHAGES and SEA GENES programs and the Combined Lab. These programs
are in course-based undergraduate research and are active leaning environments that
are unique to the Molecular Biosciences Department. STEM Ed faculty also instruct
graduate students who are enthusiastic about STEM education through discipline-focused
pedagogy courses. Faculty in this cluster have won numerous teaching awards, published
research or review articles in pedagogy, and also serve on various University and
State committees engaged in innovations to STEM Education.
