Comprehensive STEM Evaluation(CSE)

The Comprehensive STEM Evaluation(CSE) program was established by the U.S. STEM Education Foundation (USEF) in direct response to current concerns and projections about the growing demand for and shortages of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) professionals in the United States; the program seeks solutions to help ensure the breadth and depth of the STEM workforce.

Since 2009, CSE has funded more than 437 projects focusing on engineering; computer, robotics, and environmental sciences; and mathematics, impacting more than 453,000 students, 18,000 educators, and 33,000 parents and caregivers. The program also helps the STEM enthusiasts in other countries to facilitate the CSE Community of Practice, through individual and targeted technical support, and oversees the world dissemination of program models, materials, and best practices from the program.
