STEM Professionals

The expertise of STEM professionals is essential to connecting education to real world STEM and empowering students to apply their learning to improve their communities.

STEM professionals have helped us develop curricula for dozens of sites throughout the five boroughs.  What special passion, knowledge, or connections could you contribute to our next great program?

Propose a class project. Do you have a special skill?

Do you have an idea for a field trip you could lead? Can you open doors, can you pull back curtains? Tell us about it.

Visit a class to share your work.

Choose a curriculum to review and we can get to work.

Apply to Be a Mentor and be trained by our friends at Mentor NY.

We are especially seeking underrepresented STEM professionals to build a diverse network of mentors. Did you know that women only make up 24 percent of STEM professionals and that 53 percent of NYC residents are Black or Hispanic, but only 14 percent of our STEM workforce is.
