This free interactive event is designed to inspire and prepare students for high-demand careers in STEM—especially engineering—bringing together education and industry to showcase opportunities close to home.
High school and college students will gain valuable insight into engineering careers, academic pathways, and the many opportunities available in Eastern North Carolina.
