The Materials in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math Workshop (M-STEM, formerly the National Educators Workshop) 2015 will be held November 1–3 at the University of California–Irvine, USA.

M-STEM brings together students, faculty, and businesses to strengthen understanding of STEM principles, especially relating to materials science, and to enhance K-20 technology education integration. The workshop offers oral presentations and posters as well as opportunities for industry tours, three-day strands in composites or nanotechnology, and peer-reviewed publication.

A unique feature of M-STEM is hands-on, interactive learning that engages students and teachers. The workshop offers assistance to instructors in evaluation and course assessment methods, new materials technologies, roadmaps and methods for development of new materials courses, and direct means for introducing materials concepts into existing courses.
