STEM-Designated Programs

At Manhattan University, STEM isn’t just a collection of disciplines — it’s a mindset rooted in innovation, ethical problem-solving, and service. Our programs prepare students to think critically, collaborate effectively, and apply their knowledge to the world’s most pressing challenges.

During STEM Week, you’ll see that mission in action: students leading demonstrations, faculty sharing expertise, and alumni showing where a Manhattan education can take you.

See below for the University’s complete list of STEM programs which are designated by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
