Why STEM

STEP wants you to get serious about a career in science, technology, engineering, or math. Interested, but don't know much about these fields?

Throughout your years at STEP, we will provided numerous opportunities for you to see these professions close-up. Maybe one Saturday we will have arranged a panel talk with a brain surgeon, a bridge engineer, and a nuclear physicist. Or maybe you will join us for a day-trip to a laboratory at Rockefellar Center.

One thing's for sure--you will leave STEP more knowledgeable about good, high-paying careers in cutting-edge fields, and be more motivated to pursue one yourself.
