They are comprised of three academies: the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Academy of Medicine. The organization convenes hundreds of conferences, workshops, and symposia annually, bringing together leading experts from academia, public, and private sectors. Their work focuses on providing high-quality, evidence-based consensus on complex scientific, engineering, and health-related challenges. They produce peer-reviewed reports, publish scientific journals, and serve as a trusted source of expert advice for policymaking. The National Academies mobilize approximately 6,000 top experts each year who volunteer their time and knowledge to conduct policy studies, workshops, and other activities aimed at addressing critical issues facing the nation and world.

Additional informationThe draft proposed principles for equitable and effective teaching in undergraduate STEM education are aimed at soliciting public input. The final committee report will be released in late 2024. The committee will conduct a two-phase study to produce frameworks, call out areas in need of further research, and provide guidance and recommendations. Additional URLs:
