Events

The Missouri S&T SWE section does a variety of events from socials, fundraisers, meetings, and outreach. Our members are passionate about inspiring future generations to pursue STEM degrees. Our most notable events include our STEAM Days at Rolla Middle School and Kummer Center STEM Days. Come out to one of our general meetings to learn more and to get involved. We look forward to seeing you there!

• May the Fourth be With You: On May 4, students are brought to celebrate STEM at Missouri S&T, but with a special Star Wars Space theme! SWE helps run STEM sessions with visiting students to expand their understanding of STEM. 
• STEAM Days: The past year, our chapter began a STEAM Activity program for the 5th grade at Rolla Middle School. The activities introduce students to concepts of science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM). A wide range of activities were completed, from 3D holographic projectors to wind powered cars. Every 5th grader got to build, decorate, and keep their own activity. In addition to Rolla Middle School, SWE also does activities like fruit electricity circuits at Newburg Elementary School.
• Kummer Center STEM Days: These events include National STEM Day (Nov. 8th), National Engineers Week (February), and May the Fourth be With You Day. During these events, hundreds of students ages K-8 come to campus and participate in STEM related events such as balloon-powered vehicles. SWE members help the Kummer Center develop and execute engaging programming to excite students about STEM and learning at S&T.
