Events
Welcome to the CREATE for STEM's Events page! We sponsor, support, and host many STEM education research events in our suite and around campus, and are excited to offer an option to join our contact list from our website. Just click here to complete the (very short) form, or use the orange box on our homepage, and you will be added to our mailing list for upcoming CREATE events and other happenings that may be of interest to our community.
We are happy to help promote your STEM education research event, too! Please let us know if there are conferences, workshops, presentations, etc... that you would like posted on the CREATE Events page and shared on our social media channels.
Last year, we kicked off the CREATE Community Talks series. Focused on junior researchers, we wanted to offer opportunities to share work and get feedback from colleagues in a casual, friendly, in-person, low-stakes environment. Thanks to everyone who participated, either by presenting or by attending and offering your thoughts and questions to our presenters. A full list of last year's sessions will be available on our YouTube channel in the near future.
For AY 26-27, we are coordinating TWO tracks (see below) and offering them on various days during the month to allow for as many people as possible to join in.
We hope to see many of you this year in CREATE and around campus. GO GREEN!
