K–12 Outreach: Health Career Day Camp 2008
STEM Summit
Held in Rochester, Minnesota
About 700 middle and high school students enjoyed the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) Summit held on November 4, 2008, at the Rochester Community and Technical College in Rochester, Minnesota. Activities included interactive science exhibits, demonstrations and the ribbon cutting ceremony for the Mobile Science Lab.
The goal of the STEM Summit and the Rochester Chamber of Commerce Workforce 2020 program is to excite students about science so they are inspired to enter technical fields and become scientists, physicians and engineers.
