STEMNET stands for the science, engineering, technology and mathematics network. It is a national organisation which works to ensure that no region of the UK is disadvantaged, by comparison with any other, with respect to science, technology, engineering and mathematics (commonly referred to as STEM subjects). STEMNET aims to ensure that more young people make a choice to enter STEM related careers at all levels, and future generations are properly informed about the science and technology that surrounds them.
With the support of its partners, STEMNET achieves this in two ways:
- By bringing science, technology, engineering and mathematics activities, experiences and excitement in to classrooms throughout the UK, enhancing and enriching the national STEM curriculum.
- By linking those companies and other organisations that employ STEM educated people, and schools, in such a way that young people can get a clear idea of the diverse and exciting range of careers available to them.
STEMNET is a national organisation and works hard to ensure that no region of the country is disadvantaged, by comparison with any other, with respect to STEM opportunities.
