On behalf of Great Minds in STEM, Genevieve Montoya (Academic Affairs Specialist) would like to invite SWE members from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County to participate as STEM Civic Service Leaders, “College Captains,” at the upcoming Viva Technology Student Day Program on Friday, April 7, 2017.

 

Viva Technology is Great Minds in STEM’s National K-12 Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education awareness program. The program is designed to enlighten teachers, parents and K-12 students about the many ways engineers and scientists impact our daily lives. With the help of college students from surrounding universities, we are able to provide “near peer” role-models for the students who participate in the program. Through a series of hands-on STEM activities, we help participating students understand the correlation between their math and sciences studies and the many exciting careers in STEM. This is a great opportunity for university students to work with K-12 students and inspire them to consider higher learning and careers in STEM. We provide each College Captain with a $100 stipend for a full-day program; which will be distributed individually or collectively for a student organization fundraiser.

 

The program will be hosted at:

Woodlawn Middle School

3033 St. Lukes Lane

Baltimore, MD 21207

Friday, April 7, 2017

From 6:45am – 3:45pm
