Our Initiatives

Three programs bringing hands-on STEM education to students around the world.

Initiative 01

Hands-On Workshops

We host interactive science workshops that combine biology and engineering concepts with practical experiments. Students learn through doing, building everything from DNA models to simple circuits.

What Students Experience:

  • • Hands-on experiments with real lab equipment
  • • Building and testing engineering projects
  • • Working in teams to solve problems
  • • Learning from college students and mentors

Initiative 02

"An Engineer's World" Books

We wrote and published a textbook covering physics and engineering fundamentals. So far, we've distributed 8,000 copies to students in Ghana and Ethiopia who wouldn't otherwise have access to these resources.

Partnership: Developed with guidance from the United Nations to ensure the content works for students in different countries and cultures.
