Greetings from Wentworth Institute of Technology !

STEM Discovery Workshop

The  STEM Discovery Workshop for high school students is a one day workshop for high school students being offered by Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, Massachusetts during Spring 2011.  This workshop was developed to inspire students’ interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).

This workshop aims to  introduce students to some of the fields in STEM disciplines, and to the professional opportunities that can be pursued by studying STEM subjects.

Students attending the STEM Discovery Workshop will be introduced to following disciplines:

• Applied Mathematics
• Science and Bioinformatics,
• Biomedical Engineering,
• Civil Engineering,
• Computer Science,
• Electrical Engineering
• Mechanical  Engineering, and
• Nanotechnology.

The material covered in this workshop will hopefully give a good insight to high school students about several professions and disciplines and may be useful in helping them deciding upon the course of study in college.
