Do you love math, science, and/or engineering? Are you considering going to college and majoring in STEM? If so, Cosmic Pathways is the conference for you. The focus of the event will be the physical sciences, but there is so much overlap with the broader science and engineering community that everyone interested in STEM will have an amazing day and learn things that will help them build their careers. This year's conference will feature a keynote by Dr. Brad Conrad, Education and Workforce Development Manager at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Office of Advanced Manufacturing (OAM), which also serves as the Advanced Manufacturing National Program Office for Manufacturing USA.
Network with Successful STEM Professionals: Come meet and network with professionals who have gone on to have amazing careers and are eager to connect with high school and college students. There will be speakers, workshops, and events led by physical scientists who have gone on to excel in banking, engineering, physics, and mathematics.
Take a Career Workshop: Have you ever wanted to take a workshop on scientific computing from Wolfram? (They are the ones that make Wolfram-Alpha.) Or learned about careers in particle physics?
Learn about Career Possibilities for STEM Majors in College: Meet with representatives from colleges and universities to learn about how to get started in college or graduate school.
Showcase Your Robot Club or Research Project: If you would like to showcase the amazing work you and your robotics team are up to, we would love to set up an area for your team. All students can also present their research as a talk or a poster. This is a great opportunity to showcase what amazing things your school is doing.
