Charles Drew Morning of Discovery - Opportunity for Middle School students to learn about STEM Careers!


“Are minority youth ‘STEM-phobic’ – are they fearful of studying Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)?” This is a question that several organizations hope to dispel by encouraging middle school students to study and prepare to enter vital and lucrative careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Their upcoming event, the Charles Drew Morning of Discovery, will take place on Saturday, May 5 from 8am-2:30pm at:

1518 M St., NW.
Washington, DC 20005

The Charles Drew Morning of Discovery forum will give students an opportunity to explore their interests in science with “Hands-on” science activities, participate in workshops, and meet and talk to African-American scientists from the local area.

Students can register online at: http://morningofdiscovery-eorg.eventbrite.com/ and select the professional workshop that they are most interested in pursuing. Workshops will be led by Pharmacists, Chemists, Physicists, Microbiologists, Nutritionists, Dentists, Dental Hygienists, and Nurses.
