Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) skills are essential to a vital economic future for Oregon and the nation. Each February, the BEC orchestrates a major community initiative, sending hundreds of professional engineering and technology volunteers into K-12 classrooms across Oregon to ignite interest in science and math.
In NEM’s 17-year history, results are impressive!
6,370 volunteer engineers have visited 12,300 classrooms, reaching 346,400 students.
Signup for National Engineers Month 2012 begins in the fall.
