STEM Scholarship Database Act

H.R. 5139, the STEM Scholarship Database Act, would require the Department of Education to create and maintain a comprehensive online database of financial aid opportunities for students pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). This public resource would centralize information on both public and private scholarships and grants for undergraduate and graduate studies, allowing users to search by specific fields of study and demographic categories. By providing direct contact information and links to program sponsors, the bill aims to make it easier for students and families to identify and access the financial resources necessary to pursue careers in technical fields.
