The STEM Advancement Program (STEMAP) engages students from New Mexico regional universities, community colleges and tribal colleges in the research funded by New Mexico EPSCoR. This summer, students will participate in a week of workshops at New Mexico Tech on energy topics and scientific research and spent eight weeks working with New Mexico EPSCoR-funded faculty and students on cutting edge research that is important to New Mexico. The summer program concludes with the STEMAP Student Research Conference on July 29 at which the students present their results.
The STEM Symposium is hosted by the Math and Science Bureau at the Public Education Department (PED) for 500 K–12 teachers of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
The symposium will be held on June 3-4, 2016 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Albuquerque.
STEM + Literacy = Success! NM STEM Symposium Friday June 3, 2016 7:30am - 5:00pm
Saturday June 4, 2016 8:00 am - 3:00pm Embassy Suites, Albuquerque.
The symposium professional learning sessions will focus on the following areas:
Several key themes have emerged that begin to define a path towards functional infrastructure. A central theme is the broad and careful use of persistent identifiers (PIDs) for data, documents, data types, instruments, people, etc., so that computers can unambiguously identify and locate key resources and their descriptions. One particular use of identifiers is in data citation and referencing. Pulling from examples within the research data management community, this webinar will discuss data citation infrastructures, solutions, and challenges.
The Data Observation Network for Earth (DataONE) is an NSF-supported DataNet project which is developing a distributed framework and sustainable cyberinfrastructure that meets the needs of science and society for open, persistent, robust, and secure access to well-described and easily discovered Earth observational data. Now in its seventh year of funding, DataONE has released a number of tools, services and programs that support users in their data management, discovery, preservation and education needs.
Register today for the 2016 NM EPSCoR All Hands Meeting. Visitors include our External Advisory Committee and our State Committee. Keynote by John Fleck.
Since 1998, Software Carpentry has evolved from a week-long training course at the US national laboratories into a worldwide volunteer effort to improve researchers' computing skills. In this webinar, Software Carpentry's co-founder will explore what's been learned along the away about what scientists, engineers, and other researchers actually need to know about programming in order to make their work more shareable, more reproducible, more likely to be correct, and more efficient.
The New Mexico Water Resources Research Institute (NM WRRI) will host a three-day conference in May 2016 to facilitate the exchange of data and ideas among four states, three Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regions, two Tribes, and numerous local and municipal agencies and public water systems. The conference will bring together an estimated 200 participants to gain a better understanding of the theme of the conference, Environmental Conditions of the Animas and San Juan Watersheds with Emphasis on Gold King Mine and other Mine Waste Issues.
The Water Resources Research Institute is holding a conference, "Environmental Conditions of the Animas and San Juan Watersheds with Emphasis on Gold King Mine and Other Mine Waste Issues," to facilitate the exchange of data and ideas around the Animas River spill. The WRRI is calling for abstracts in fields relating to geology, hydrology, mining, mitigation of contamination, transport of contaminants, and more.
