STEM

With a mission that encourages students to make a difference in their communities, WT’s STEM courses promote problem-solving for the common good. Our project-based courses empower students as agents of change, as they apply powerful research, programming, engineering, and design skills to real-world challenges. Through our City as our Campus program, we connect students - classes and individuals - with industry leaders and entrepreneurs. We also train students to safely and effectively use the tools in our two maker spaces. 

Each spring, WT organizes a STEM Symposium where students present their projects in a public forum. The evening celebrates curiosity and innovation and prepares participants for college-level research and presentations. Read more about our students’ projects below!

I think [the STEM Symposium] is the most relevant thing we do. It is the most eye-opening thing that happens all year. There is no ‘A on a test’ that can convey what our students are capable of.
