The Institute is back for another STEMtastic summer! We are excited that you are taking part in the Siemens STEM Institute, a one-of-a-kind immersion program that promotes hands on, real-world integration of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) in the classroom. You are part of a group of fifty educators selected as STEM Fellows to attend this all-expenses-paid*, week-long professional development experience, hosted at the world headquarters of Discovery Communications, located just outside of Washington D.C. Fellows will collaborate, communicate, and network with leading scientists, thought-leaders, personalities and innovators whose work across STEM disciplines shape and define our world today. This week will be filled with guest speakers at the forefront of STEM, field trips to leading institutions where you and your new Professional Learning Community will observe real-world applications of STEM subject matter, and opportunities for networking and collaborating with peers from across the nation. In addition to broad-based STEM applications, you will become immersed in a thematic working group that will provide additional deep-dive exposure .
