- The Center for Innovation in Engineering and Science Education (CIESE) was
founded 1988 to improve K-12 science and mathematics education through the use
of technology. Drawing upon Stevens' years of experience as the first college
in the country to require students to own a computer (1982), early CIESE
programs utilized mathematics 'tool' software for exploration of mathematical
concepts.
The mission is to catalyze and support excellence in teaching and learning of
science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM) and other core subjects
through innovative, research-based instructional strategies and use of novel
technologies.
CIESE collaborates with K-12 and university educators, researchers,
policymakers and educational organizations to develop curriculum materials,
conduct professional development programs, and research new methodologies to
strengthen STEM education.
