STEM

The STEM-Africa Initiative coordinates research efforts in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics between the University of Michigan and partnering educational institutions in Africa. Drawing upon U-M’s strength in STEM disciplines, the program promotes and coordinates existing STEM initiatives in Africa and responds to requests from partnering African institutions for capacity-building assistance in these areas.

A bi-annual revolving conference brings together scholars from Africa and U-M and seed grants of up to $10,000 support collaborative research.
