The input of STEM education practitioners to the Governor's STEM Advisory Council is vital to its mission. Jeff Weld, executive director of both IMSEP and the Governor's STEM Advisory Council, will facilitate the forum, where details as to structure, initiatives and input will be shared. RSVP to 4-0423 or traciem (at) iastate (dot) edu.

The Governor's STEM Advisory Council, a cross-sectional body of professionals charged with invigorating the STEM education pipeline for Iowa, was assembled in September of 2011 to fulfill the goals of Executive Order #74, including "Work to dramatically increase students' interest and achievement in STEM subjects so they will have a greater opportunity to pursue STEM careers." The Iowa Mathematics & Science Education Partnership (IMSEP) has been assigned to manage the programmatic and administrative functions of the new Council.
