STEM BUILD at UMBC is an undergraduate success initiative and research study at UMBC funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). UMBC is investigating ways to enhance the diversity and success of students who have the goal of pursuing baccalaureate degrees in the sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The focus of the BUILD 2.0 initiative is on lower-division undergraduates and the continuing goal is to promote the matriculation of students into biomedical and behavioral research fields.
