Sponsored by:
Center for Careers & Internships
The Stem Innovation Program is a creative interdisciplinary program designed to challenge students to formulate and implement a solution to a scientific or technological problem. Each year, a team of students from a variety of STEM departments and disciplines implement a technological solution to a real-world problem. Their goal is to develop a deliverable product in 10 weeks through technological innovation, collaboration, and iteration. We’ll learn about the 2017 project and have an opportunity to engage in a conversation about the role of STEM in the liberal arts.
