This website was created to:
- Highlight interesting research in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) done by students and professionals in the lab and field
- Provide a resource for the public to learn about research done by labs and groups, many that are located in Universities in Colorado
- Give students of all backgrounds thinking about pursuing careers in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) an idea of what it’s really like to go to graduate school or work in STEM careers that don’t require advanced degrees
