A growing STEM workforce doesn't happen by accident—it takes decades of dedicated investment and curiosity-driven research. ✨

We love seeing this look back at how the National Science Foundation (NSF) has sparked innovation and shaped classrooms since the 1950s. Through Nevada EPSCoR, we are proud to be part of the ecosystem expanding these opportunities in Nevada! 👇

Since the 1950s, NSF has supported students, educators, researchers and entrepreneurs through investments that strengthen K-12 science education nationwide, sparking curiosity and exploration of careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Early efforts led to updated textbooks, instructional films and hands-on experiments that allowed students to explore scientific concepts both inside and outside the classroom. 🥽

Today, more than 36 million Americans work in STEM fields, a growing workforce shaped by NSF's commitment. NSF invests billions of dollars each year in this mission, strengthening opportunities across America.
