Her curiosity will illuminate the future
Currently, less than 10% of the STEM workforce is Black, despite the significant impact of Black inventors and scholars in the industry.
To celebrate Black History Month, ComEd’s STEM Lab program pairs Black ComEd employees with Black high school students interested in STEM. Our goal is to help the students see the possibilities of working in STEM while building robots with their mentors.
ComEd’s STEM Labs is a program specially made to encourage students of color and young women to pursue careers in STEM. Get notified about this program and other free STEM programs for students of color and young women at STEMSignUp.com/COMED
