Northeastern’s Center for STEM Education Giving Day!
Northeastern University is hosting its annual Giving Day today! This is an amazing opportunity to support the Center for STEM Education and help us continue providing nearby communities with fun and exciting STEM activities to encourage a new generation of STEM thinkers. Every year the Center for STEM Education hosts a variety of programs for students to get involved. Learn more about these programs below (or reading our blog posts about events)!
STEM Field Trip Series
The Center for STEM Education offers 4th to 8th grade students an opportunity to come to Northeastern University’s campus for a STEM Field Trip. These field trips are free of cost for schools and allows students to not only explore Northeastern’s beautiful campus but engage in fun and exciting STEM activities. These STEM activities aim to encourage and promote lifelong STEM interest and build the next generation of scientists and engineers.
Young Scholars’ Program
The Young Scholars’ Program is an opportunity for future scientists and engineers to gain hands-on research experience while in high school. All Massachusetts residents who have completed their junior year are encouraged to apply. YSP provides laboratory research experience with Northeastern University’s College of Arts, Sciences, and Engineering professors that allow students to learn a variety of subjects, as well as attending research presentations and industry visits.
Engineering PLUS
As part of the NSF Engineering PLUS grant, the Center runs the stEm PEER Academy each summer, a 2-year professional development and research experience to deepen participants’ knowledge and understanding of the challenges and successful strategies guiding the transformation of our national Engineering landscape.
And More!
The Center for STEM Education provides countless opportunities for K-12 students to learn and expand their love of STEM! We also provide additional support to a multitude of Northeastern clubs, Northeastern students, and Northeastern faculty.
