Calling all STEM instructors! Join us for a quantum education workshop designed to introduce community college and undergraduate faculty across NM to the fast-growing field of quantum information science.  
ALBUQUERQUE — On November 15, the 12th annual New Mexico Research Symposium (NMRS) drew 77 student researchers for its poster session, nearly double the participation from previous years. More than 200 students, faculty, scientists, researchers, and community members from across the state came presented their work, networked with peers, and experienced a professional scientific conference.
Two proposals have been selected for NM EPSCoR RIO-NM Seed Award funding, with each project receiving $50,000 to support transformative research and capacity building. The first project, led by PI Jiakai Zhang and co-PI Jun Zheng at New Mexico Tech, will create New Mexico’s first high-resolution Economic Development Index—providing state decision-makers with improved data to inform policy and infrastructure planning.
In an era of increasingly polarized discourse, more university leaders, politicians, and academics are calling for greater viewpoint diversity in higher education — not only to foster more inclusive dialogue, but to better prepare students for a world of often conflicting ideas.Featured Speakers:Kim Hunter ReedCommissioner of Higher Education for the State of Louisiana; former Deputy Undersecretary at the U.S. Department of Education

Join the U.S. National Science Foundation Directorate for STEM Education (EDU) to learn about EDU funding opportunities. EDU program representatives will introduce funding opportunities and invite questions. They will then open the floor to discussion about ideas and challenges associated with acquiring NSF funding. This information is especially helpful to institutions in EPSCoR Jurisdictions.
