Description
The NIH Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) program supports innovative educational activities that encourage pre-college students (pre-kindergarten to grade 12), to pursue further studies in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), particularly in the biomedical and behavioral sciences.
The program will support classroom-based projects for pre-kindergarten to grade 12 (pre-college) students and teachers and informal science education (ISE) projects conducted in outside-the-classroom venues such as after-school science programs and libraries. Projects that support quantitative and computational skills development are strongly encouraged.
