About the organiser
Organised by
Philadelphia Regional Institute for STEM EducatorsPRISE builds on ten years of partnership among ten institutions of higher education in the greater Philadelphia region Arcadia University, Bryn Mawr/Haverford Colleges, Community College of Philadelphia, Drexel University, La Salle University, Saint Joseph’s University, Temple University, University of Pennsylvania, Villanova University and West Chester University as well as regional STEM stakeholders including The Philadelphia Education Fund (PEF) and the School District of Philadelphia. This partnership grew out of common efforts to implement the National Science Foundation Noyce Scholarship program. We recognized that we could do more together than we could do individually to ensure equitable, high quality STEM teaching in the Philadelphia region. All students in the Philadelphia region should have equitable access to high-quality STEM instruction. Supporting both the recruitment, retention and ongoing development of diverse and highly effective teachers is a critical element of supporting STEM education in the region.
