USTEM believes that through positive experiential learning and hands on activities, we can encourage young people to fall in love with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Our goal is to inspire an appreciation and a passion for learning in these fields. We believe that this foundation of learning provides an advantage to our students, regardless of the career path they choose to follow later on in life.

 USTEM actively encourages, minorities, women, and disadvantaged youth (including those from title I districts, at risk youth), to join our programs. Now with Covid, we have adapted our program into an online learning environment. Our online program is designed for 1st-6th grade students.
