About The STEM Division

Overview

Overview

The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Division cultivates, nurtures, and increases the intellectual competency of students pursuing careers and advanced studies in biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, mathematics, physics, psychology, and the health professions.

Students’ intellectual development and enriched learning experience are supported through rigorous and relevant instruction, exceptional learning, and state-of-the-art research training through intentional pedagogy, impactful mentorship, and commitment to community service.

The STEM Division prepares students by promoting student engagement and success through a learning environment that supports and facilitates inquiry, discovery, and innovation.

In addition, the STEM Division develops an interdisciplinary curriculum that prepares students for advanced studies and future careers that build upon STEM disciplines. The STEM Division develops future leaders who are innovators and problem solvers, with a cultural and social consciousness of global problems that affect modern society. At our HBCU in Atlanta, students who graduate with majors in the STEM Division influence technological, social, and political decisions that address critical global challenges.
