The Utah STEM Action Center, part of the Utah Department of Cultural & Community Engagement, was established in 2013 to enhance STEM education across Utah. It aims to support teacher development and inspire students with STEM opportunities in K-12 classrooms. The center organizes events like STEM Fest and conferences, alongside programs such as STEM in Motion, to engage communities and industries. It strives for broader access to STEM education, including in rural areas, to foster a competitive workforce for Utah’s economic growth. As Utah’s primary advocate for STEM education, the center collaborates with public education and private sectors, offering various programs like STEM Fest, conferences, programs, and curriculum kits.
