About the SD STEM Ecosystem
Our Mission
We are creating a San Diego where everyone is connected to STEM learning opportunities. The San Diego STEM Ecosystem brings together organizations, businesses, schools, and community groups to expand access to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics for learners of all ages and backgrounds.
Why a STEM Ecosystem?
San Diego as a STEM-rich region needs to be ready for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow. The next generation must be equipped to become the thinkers, problem solvers, and innovators we need today and in the future. We want all learners to have a chance to be immersed in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math—to make our world a better place.
What We Do
Connect
We connect learners, families, educators, and organizations with STEM opportunities and resources across San Diego County.
Collaborate
Through our semi-annual Collab Labs and ongoing partnerships, Ecosystem members work together to support STEM learning in our community.
Catalyze
We catalyze new partnerships and programs that address gaps in STEM access, particularly for underserved communities.
Our Partners
The SD STEM Ecosystem is a collective impact initiative hosted by the Fleet Science Center. We are supported by a network of over 150 organizations including museums, schools, universities, businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies.
