Iowa Governor Terry Branstad announced the first major initiative of the Governor's STEM Advisory Council, a public-private partnership of six regional STEM network hubs to promote STEM education and economic development. Each of the hubs will be housed at one of the state's universities or community colleges, and will coordinate local programs with businesses, nonprofits and other institutions in their regions. The six winning hub applications are available online and lay out the hubs' individual approaches to elevating the quality of STEM education and matching efforts with the needs of local employers.
