HINJ Excellence in STEM Award
Excerpt from Letter from HINJ: As you know, the HealthCare Institute of New Jersey (HINJ),the trade association representing the research-based biopharmaceutical and medical technology industry in New Jersey, annually recognizes excellence in research, public service, patient advocacy and STEM education. I am delighted that the New Jersey STEM Pathways Network has agreed to accept the 2019 HINJ Excellence in STEM Education Award as part of our annual Recognition Awards Program. We have chosen to honor the Network for its accomplishments in terms of helping New Jersey to attract, cultivate and retain a 21st century workforce that is engaged and supported through statewide alignment of public and private STEM educational resources, ensuring that the state remains globally competitive in STEM industries and continues its rich history of innovation.
Thank you to our Leaders!
