Our mission is to expose Florida’s citizens to the exciting and engaging world of science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM), and health to ignite their interests and motivation for these disciplines. We strive for early student involvement and STEM & Health reinforcement as they grow, so they are set to become successful STEM & Health professionals later in life. The STEM & Health Expo is our alternative to the typical County Science & Health Fair. It allows the students to get a chance to showcase their science work in a fun and unique venue, with learning opportunities for the entire family.
To accomplish the primary goals of the Expo, activities have been developed for participating students, teachers, and the general public. Participating students will work with their teachers and/or mentors to prepare a demo that they will present to the public at the Expo. The general public will have the chance to view presentations by local industries and universities that include applications such as solar energy, robotics and the like.
Science is the essence of life, sparking curiosity, questions, and connections that define our world. It forms the foundation for understanding and appreciating our surroundings in fresh ways.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education embodies this spirit. It equips students with crucial skills in these domains, fostering critical thinking and science literacy. STEM education paves the way for innovators, driving economic sustainability through novel products and processes.
The impact of STEM is profound and omnipresent in our daily lives. It’s in the natural world, technology, engineering marvels, and mathematical applications. STEM shapes our experiences, fuels progress, and is pivotal for our future and that of our children. STEM-related careers offer rewarding opportunities, underlining its economic significance and the necessity of STEM learning. Technology-driven innovation has been a significant contributor to the U.S. economy, and future job prospects emphasize the growing importance of STEM expertise.
