STEM on the Road
Students engaging students to build interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics
STEM on the Road is a peer-to-peer outreach event where PNW students share engineering vehicles and research demonstrations with interested high school students. Approximately three hours, these events highlight the types of hands-on learning featured at Purdue University Northwest.
What Can Students See?
- Formula SAE vehicles
- Mini-Baja vehicles
- Electric vehicles
- Human exploration rover vehicles
- Biology research
- Chemistry research
- Physics research
- Forensics research
Our event is usually set up so that we can work with specific STEM-oriented classes as well as students on their lunch break or in their passing period. We typically support eight events a year, four per semester.
