Chapters of the National Society of Black Engineers at Carnegie Mellon University and the University Pittsburgh recently hosted the Walk for Education STEM Education Fair.
The goal of the joint venture was to increase awareness of the opportunities available to pre-collegiate students in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.
The fair included hands-on experiments, an engineering competition, and workshops for students and parents. The fair, held at the Pitt attended William Pitt Union, was attended by students from local middle and high schools, as well as afterschool programs.
Walk for Education STEM Fair is a program that serves to increase the awareness of the opportunities available to pre-collegiate students through education in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.
