I don’t know if you saw this but it looks like SCU is making a big investment in STEM:

"Santa Clara University plans to build an ambitious new science, technology, engineering and math hub, backed by a record $100 million gift from Susan and John A. Sobrato, an SCU alumnus and founder of one of Silicon Valley’s largest commercial development firms.

The elegant new building, outfitted with state-of-the-art laboratories and equipment, could be a game-changer for the private, 165-year-old Jesuit university whose reputation was built on the liberal arts, creating a rare opportunity to link fast-moving technical fields with the school’s long-standing commitment to ethics.

The gift from the Sobratos, announced Saturday night, is the largest ever for the university, which was established in 1851 and is the oldest operating institution of higher learning in California. Construction of the new building is scheduled to start in the fall of 2018, with completion in 2020"
