What is the STEM Preparation Program?
The STEM Preparation Program provides online science, engineering and math classes
for students enrolled at an Arkansas community college. The classes are geared towards
students interested in pursuing a degree in science, engineering or math.
Classes will count toward an associate's degree at the student's community college
and an engineering, science or math bachelor's degree at the University of Arkansas.
You can also transfer the courses to other colleges and universities, inside or outside
the state of Arkansas.
Students will pay their current community college tuition rate for each course.
Your adviser can help you decide which courses are right for your degree plan and
educational goals.
