What Keeps Online STEM Students Enrolled | Labster Research
New research surveyed 400+ online and hybrid STEM students to reveal what drives persistence and retention, and why experiential learning is the key.
Visit Labster at WCET 2026 to see how virtual labs solve the online STEM lab gap, without adding facilities, kits, or scheduling complexity. Labster is the virtual lab platform built for online STEM programs, with 500+ simulations across biology, chemistry, physics, and health sciences, deployed inside your LMS in minutes. Students who complete Labster improve by an average of a full letter grade. 90% say it improves their grades. 87% say it increases their motivation to learn.
Stop by the Labster table to see a simulation in your subject area, explore our textbook alignment tool, and understand what deployment looks like at an institution like yours.
Labster helps institutions bring engaging, realistic science lab experiences to students, and I’m looking forward to conversations with career-focused schools exploring ways to strengthen STEM.
