Welcome to CRESE!
The Center for Research and Engagement in STEM Education (CRESE) is dedicated to enriching, enhancing, and supporting STEM education. We aim to improve educational outcomes in the region by engaging K-12 students and teachers. Further, we are committed to generating new knowledge related to STEM education practices through research.
During the 2022-23 academic year, CRESE engaged with thousands of youth throughout North County San Diego! While also impacting CSUSM undergraduates, a combination of CRESE STEM Ambassadors and service learning students from the School of Education.

CRESE SEMINAR SERIES
Bridging Gaps in Undergraduate STEM Education: Insights from Discipline- Based STEM Education Research
The CRESE Seminar series explores findings from discipline-based STEM education research that can help advance equity, academic success, and social mobility for all students. Distinguished speakers will present their research, followed by interactive Q&A sessions focused on translating these findings into practical teaching strategies for undergraduate STEM classrooms. Through these discussions, we will examine strategies to address barriers, foster inclusivity, and enhance student achievement within a diverse academic community. This series will showcase the significance of discipline-based STEM education research in undergraduate STEM programs, foster meaningful discussions, and inspire actionable change in teaching.
