The BHEF U.S. STEM Education Model, developed by Raytheon Company and gifted to BHEF in 2009, is the centerpiece of BHEF’s STEM Education & Modeling Project, which is designed to help increase the number of students who pursue majors and careers in STEM fields. The Model is a simulation model that incorporates census data and standardized test scores to track the flow of students through the K-16 education system and into careers in STEM teaching or STEM industries. The Model is free and available in open source for use by the public through www.stemnetwork.org, and is managed by a partnership among BHEF, Raytheon and The Ohio State University’s (OSU) Battelle Center for Mathematics and Science Education Policy.
