STEM Engagement at Marshall
STEM Engagement at Marshall Space Flight Center supports the agency’s objectives to advance the STEM workforce pipeline by administering and offering STEM programs at the international, national, state and local levels.
We Engage Students In NASA’s Mission
K-12 students can dig deeper into STEM topics and experience the thrill of exploration and discovery.
NASA makes vital investments in a diverse portfolio of learning opportunities and activities designed to reach as many U.S. students as possible – from kindergarten through graduate school. NASA seeks to build the next generation STEM workforce and broaden student participation to increase diversity, equity and inclusion in STEM fields.
For Kids and Students
We Inspire An Interest In STEM
NASA’s Next Gen STEM offers a wide array of unique experiences designed to engage K-12 students nationwide in the agency’s missions, people, and resources.
Educators are a significant part of students’ lives and play a key role in connecting NASA to the Artemis Generation. NASA’s Next Gen STEM fully supports formal educators in classrooms and informal educators in museums, science centers, afterschool programs, and similar organizations, all of whom bring the excitement of the agency’s missions to students.
