Now is the time to explore your passions in STEM! Did you know that STEM Careers help others and make the world a better place?

Participants in the event will get structured classroom time participating in hands-on activities alongside an expo with local companies to learn more about careers in STEM. The expo will be an opportunity to meet and learn from women professionals in a variety of STEM careers. 2024's expo included female professionals from Northwestern Mutual, Eaton, Harley Davidson, ATI Forged Products, Milwaukee Tool, Generac, Associated Bank, and the MSOE Society of Women Engineers & Actuarial Science Club.

4th - 5th grade students will explore the engineering design process by creating/building solutions to different challenges.

6th - 9th grade students will participate in robotics & coding activities. All participants will leave the day with new ideas and goals for their future.

While this event does have an expo component, it is not a drop-in format, and attendees should plan to stay for the full duration of the event.

Girl Scouts who attend this event will have completed their STEM Careers Badge by the end of the event.

This event is open to any student who identifies as female in grades 4 - 9.

Scholarships are available for any student who needs one thanks to the generosity of the American Association of University Women. Please contact stem@msoe.edu to receive a scholarship code for registration.

FAQ's

May I drop my student off at the street / sidewalk near the Center?

Families should walk-in to check-in their students. Students cannot be dropped off more than 10 minutes before program start and must be picked up within 10 minutes of the program end time. Children not in a program must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

How do I get to your facility?

We are located at 1444 N Water Street on the MSOE campus. A map and parking information will be sent to all families at least one week prior to your program start date.

Can I sit with or watch my student in your program?

Our programs do not have capacity to accommodate adult visitors and are designed around students learning in teams. The Center has windows in each classroom where families are welcome to visually check in on their students and ample seating around the facility will be available for families who wish to stay while their student is in a program(s).

My student is an advanced learner - should I enroll them in a higher grade level program?

Please enroll your student in the grade level program that corresponds with their current grade. All of our programs have variations and elements we can add and redact to make an activity more challenging or easier to accommodate a spectrum of learners.

My student has accommodations I'd like to discuss - who do I contact?

Please e-mail stem@msoe.edu if your student has any physical, mental or emotional accommodations that our team should be aware of prior to the program to help us ensure your student has a great experience at MSOE!

We do not have staffing to offer 1:1 student support during a program. If your student requires assistance at all times, please reach out as soon as possible to help us better understand if we can ensure your student has a great learning experience.
