Housed in Yale University’s Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) department, the STEM Program Evaluation and Research Lab (STEM-PERL) is a field leader in systems-based evaluation of college STEM education programs. STEM-PERL collaborates with partners from universities across the United States and contributes to the national dialogue on evidence-based teaching as part of large-scale, grant-funded evaluation initiatives. The STEM-PERL team is interdisciplinary, collaborative, and systems-oriented in its research and evaluation approaches.
