STEM-VRSE was created with a specific vision, two primary missions, and a core set of values to operate as a successful STEM research and education centered organization. At STEM-VRSE, our vision centers on becoming one of the critical organizations integrating 360° and virtual reality (VR) technologies with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) research and education. We use our vision in meeting these two missions. The first mission centers on supporting the integration of 360° and VR technologies across all STEM research domains. The second mission centers on promoting the use of these same technologies across both formal and informal STEM education learning environments. In doing so, we operate from our core values of collaborative community, distributive expertise, and innovative improvement to both support early career STEM researchers and empower STEM teachers.
