Individual states, such as California, have run pilot after-school STEM programs to learn what the most promising practices are and how to implement them to increase the chance of student success.[35] Another state to invest in STEM education is Florida, where Florida Polytechnic University,[36] Florida’s first public university for engineering and technology dedicated to science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), was established.[37] During school, STEM programs have been established for many districts throughout the U.S. Some states include New Jersey, Arizona, Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, and Ohio.[38][39]
