A Week-Long Celebration of Science! The NM Science Fiesta is a virtual week-long celebration of science for kids, teens, and adults. Take a virtual road trip through New Mexico and explore science, technology, engineering, art, and math and the roles they play in shaping our culture and the future of New Mexico.
Join us for an introduction and overview about the NM Rainforest University Center Program available to UNM students, entrepreneurs and community members throughout the state of New Mexico! Funded by an EDA grant, learn about many free resources, seminars, knowledge and mentoring opportunities available to help stimulate and guide you on your entrepreneurial journey!
Let's get comfortable talking about the uncomfortable! In this webinar four former community college students will share uncomfortable situations they experienced on their path through STEM, including systemic discrimination, navigating higher education while being part of a historically excluded group, and other challenges. Following the panel, this webinar will create a safe space for participants to ask questions and discuss their personal experiences. Panelists will then share solutions on how to navigate uncomfortable situations moving forward.
In this webinar two professionals will discuss how to balance work, family, and life as a student or professional in STEM. By telling their personal stories, panelists will provide real-world examples and advice about how much to take on, how to balance work loads with personal responsibilities, and more!
Presenters: Laura Tabor and Jacqueline Waite, NM Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Department (EMNRD)
Please join us for the 2020 STEMAP student presentations and virtual poster session! STEMAP engages students from NM’s regional universities, community colleges, and tribal colleges in NM SMART Grid Center research and training. Students spend 8-weeks working under the direction of faculty mentors at NMSU, NMT, and UNM. The NM SMART Grid Center, an interdisciplinary National Science Foundation (NSF) project, is pursuing research and workforce training for next-generation electric power production and delivery.
