Army Showcases STEM Careers
Over 100 career paths available through the US Army lead to STEM-focused careers, so naturally, the Science Center is proud to partner with the US Army and showcase all the amazing STEM opportunities that the US Army has to offer.
The Army’s partnership with the Science Center’s Esports Program allows local gamers to compete in the Show Me Showdown Series four times a year playing various game titles. Recently, the Science Center and US Army provided opportunities for local gamers to compete in Rocket League and Fortnite.
During the most recent esports event, the US Army provided Science Center guests with the hands-on opportunity to experience robotic equipment used by the Army in the field. Additionally, guests were able to hear from members of the Army’s Explosive Ordinance Disposal team and learn how they use various pieces of equipment to safely remove dangerous items in the field. The Science Center looks forward to hosting future events with the US Army.
