In 2011, Georgia Perimeter College created the Office of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Initiatives, with a goal to provide college-wide leadership for STEM activities. The mission of the GPC STEM Initiatives Office is to promote student access and to improve student success in the STEM disciplines by providing  educational opportunities and support for students choosing STEM disciplines as a major; deepening student and faculty engagement in college-wide STEM activities; strengthening collaborations to advance STEM preparation for P-20 students and faculty; and, developing and supporting exemplary practices and policies in STEM education at the 2-year college level.

The GPC Office of STEM Initiatives supports the following grants and programs: the USG STEM Initiative; the Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) Program; the Education and Nurture Leadership in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Scholarship (ENSLITEM) Program; the Peach State Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (PSLSAMP) Program; and, the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Talent Expansion (STEP) Program.  For more information, contact the Office of STEM Initiatives at 678-891-2895 or visit the GPC STEM website.
