Pathways to STEM Student Panel

Would you like to discover a variety of ways to support your child's interest in a STEM (science, math, technology, and engineering) career? Do you have questions about how your child can navigate middle and high school in order to prepare for these careers? Are you seeking more information about opportunities for students pursuing post-secondary study in a STEM field? 

If so, we invite you to join our JMU student panelists who will be sharing their decisions and experiences that led them to choose a STEM career pathway. The panelists will share who and what influenced them to choose a career in a STEM field. They will share what parents and caregivers can be doing now to assist adolescents who have indicated an interest in STEM.  This workshop is open to all parents and teachers who are accompanying students to madiSTEM.
