Outreach & Community Service

Our current outreach efforts have reached over 700 students in the Rolla, St. James, and Licking Missouri Communities. This semester we plan to extend our reach even farther. Our hope with our programming is to interest students at a younger age when math and science can be the most frustrating and discouraging subjects.

Rolla Middle School

Our chapter participated in STEM days at the middle school, teaching the students about science, technology, engineering, and math. We were also able to tell them about our experiences at S&T, and get them excited about an engineering degree!

Newburg Elementary School

This past year, our chapter of SWE was able to secure 500 STEM kits for fifth graders. They were able to design, build, test, and take home their creations.

Kaleidescope Center

The Kaleidescope Center is a local STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) outreach center in Rolla, MO. Some of our membership is able to volunteer with them and assist in exposing local students and children to various STEAM concepts and ideas.
