Discovering passions can be difficult for students of all ages, and it can be even harder for students to figure out what they may be interested in as potential careers for their future. Where finding out what someone truly wants to do in the future can be tough and take plenty of experimentation and discovery, STEM·E believes that this process of trial and error or success should not come at a high cost. STEM·E offers various events in order to help children of all ages and backgrounds discover what they are passionate about while keeping these events affordable. Below are upcoming talks, competitions, and start-up events concerning many different topics, including banking, medicine, space settlement, and more.
