Making Industry Connections
The STEMworks™ team connects students with local professionals in an effort to expose them to the many STEM career opportunities in their communities. We also connect schools to industry mentors for student projects. This is an excellent opportunity for students to gain invaluable insights and exposure to professionals that they might not have otherwise connected with.
