dc.description.abstract | According to the 2018 National Study of Learning, Voting, and Engagement (NSLVE) report, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematic (STEM) majors do not vote at rates as high as non-STEM majors at East Carolina University and around the country. We believe this is a pressing issue that should be addressed. Going back to the fundamentals of education, we created the first ever East Carolina University Honors College Seminar developed by students, for students, to address the lack of voting among STEM majors. The seminar is currently being taught this semester (Spring 2023) by Dr. Mosier, a professor in the Political Science Department. The course emphasizes the importance of scientifically sound civic engagement and political participation for STEM majors and other STEM interested students. | en_US |
