SEPA

Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA)

The Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) Program funds innovative pre-kindergarten to grade 12 (P–12) science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and Informal Science Education (ISE) educational projects. SEPA projects create partnerships among biomedical and clinical researchers and teachers and schools, museums and science centers, media experts, and other educational organizations. SEPA K–12 resources target state and national K–12 standards for STEM teaching and learning and are rigorously evaluated for effectiveness. SEPA is sponsored by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), a component of the NIH.

The Science Teaching Excites Medical Interest (STEMI) project is a collaboration among an academic health science center faculty and graduate students, a nationally-recognized Telehealth dissemination capacity, and Mississippi science teachers, will improve the quality of high school teacher training and facilitate electronic delivery of rigorous science lessons to students across the state and beyond. Improving the development of the state’s future health science workforce will help address access-to-care disparities and meet the public health needs of the state’s currently under-served population
