Curriculum enhancement and innovation
The National HE STEM Programme’s Higher Education Curriculum Strategy has been developed to support STEM departments and faculties in enhancing their learning, teaching, assessment and support practices. Enhancing and developing existing practices to increase the retention, progression, motivation, and achievement of undergraduate STEM students will not only have a positive effect upon their learning experience, but will also contribute to a future generation who will be keen to re-engage with higher education in support of its activities.
