The Long Island STEM Hub, one of ten forming within the Empire State STEM Learning Network, is focused on preparing students for the Long Island workforce through enhanced STEM experiences for students and teachers. Academic relevance serves as a major theme by making it easy for businesses to engage with school and university systems, and integrating non-academic settings such as museums, research labs, and not-for-profit programs. It is envisioned that the Hub will promote workforce development to support the high tech economic growth and vitality of the region. The Hub serves as a collaborative operation, providing a one-stop source for businesses, school districts, students, parents, teachers, universities, informal education and worker retraining operations to address STEM workforce needs in the region.
