Diversity in STEM
Corporate Partners Program
Our Diversity in STEM Corporate Partners Program creates and fosters connections between underrepresented students in the life, physical, and mathematical sciences and partner corporations. This program develops strategic relationships in environments conducive to networking and recruitment and allows each company the chance to showcase themselves as industry leaders.
