3 Goals of EHR 1. Prepare the next generation of STEM professionals and attract and retain more Americans to STEM careers. 2. Develop a robust research community that can conduct rigorous research and evaluation that will support excellence in STEM education and that integrates research and education. 3. Increase the technological, scientific and quantitative literacy of all Americans so that they can exercise responsible citizenship and live productive lives in an increasingly technological society. 4. Broaden participation (individuals, geographic regions, types of institutions, STEM disciplines) and close achievement gaps in all STEM fields.
