The Spark! Project places Hampton University on the leading edge of a national trend that connects the arts and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math). STEM proponents seek to encourage innovation in American education and business with the ultimate goal of keeping America competitive in the global economy. The ultimate goal of the Spark! Team is broader.
A collaboration between the Hampton University Museum and the School of Engineering and Technology, Spark! includes this issue of the IRAAA, the Jam engineering competition, support for K–12 education and the production of a video documentary in association with Maryland Public Television, a PBS affiliate.
In the Spark! Project, we’ve added architecture to STEM to make STEAM. ArtSTEAM is our field of play—the interface of arts and STEAM.
