Pathways to STEM

Pathways to STEM

Pathways to STEM (P2STEM) is an after school program geared towards high school students interested in STEM. Students will be exploring diverse career pathways through research presentations. Northeastern faculty members will be presenting their ongoing research to participants, and participants will have time to ask questions about the presenter’s research and their field of study. Presentations will be occur via Zoom every Tuesday/Thursday from 4:00-5:00pm for 8 weeks, starting September 28/30th. Registration for this program is required.
