High School STEM Days are a once-a-month event for local public high school students to visit the Lab. This event; co-hosted by K-12 Programs at Berkeley Lab, is a chance to share what life in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and STEM adjacent professions are like. This is an exciting opportunity to speak with students as they are deciding for themselves what it means to be a STEM professional.
We are seeking volunteers in all lab positions. All staff in STEM and STEM adjacent careers are welcome and encouraged to participate.
