R-STEM supports and promotes Rice University’s wide-ranging efforts to improve K-12 science, technology, engineering and mathematics education in all Greater Houston Area school districts.
- The Precise Advanced Technologies and Health Systems for Underserved Populations (PATHS-UP)
-
PATHS-UP Engineering Research Center (ERC) was funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 2017. PATHS-UP mission is 1) to engineer transformative, robust, and affordable, technologies and systems to improve healthcare access, enhance the quality of service and life, and reduce the cost of healthcare in underserved populations. The PATHS-UP ERC team is led by Texas A&M University, with partners from the University of California at Los Angeles, Rice University, and Florida International University.
- Rice University National Security Research Accelerator (RUNSRA)
-
RUNSRA is a cooperative agreement for research to enable advanced materials and next-generation networks. The effort is aimed at unprecedented intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance specifically focused on next-generation wireless networks and radio frequency (RF) electronics.
- Carbon Hub
-
Carbon Hub's vision is a zero-emissions future, where clean hydrogen energy and advanced carbon materials are co-produced efficiently and sustainably from natural gas and oil. Fossil hydrocarbons are no longer burned for energy and large scale technology is deployed to provide industrial carbon materials that house, move, clothe, and feed people.
