Are you an IEEE volunteer conducting STEM outreach programs for pre-university students and/or teachers in your local community on behalf of IEEE? Would you like to help inspire other volunteers to get involved in STEM outreach? Then, we want to hear from you!

In June 2021, IEEE TryEngineering.org launched a new IEEE STEM Champion Program to recognize IEEE volunteers for their contributions to STEM education and to build a community of IEEE STEM outreach volunteers. 

We are looking to add to our STEM Champion team. All active IEEE members are invited to submit an application no later than April 8, 2024 (11:59pm ET) to be considered as STEM champions. Applications will be reviewed in late April, and selections will be announced in early May.

The program resides at TryEngineering.org. The IEEE STEM Champion title is a designation given to an individual IEEE volunteer and is not a Region or Section officer position.

What are the Benefits of Being Selected as a STEM Champion?

  • Recognition for your contributions to pre-university STEM education 
  • Opportunity to be involved in a community of IEEE STEM outreach volunteers
  • Grant funding opportunity
  • Opportunity to build regional and sectional awareness of your work
  • Ability to support IEEE pre-university education by sharing your events and event results
  • Access to Champion-specific pre-university STEM education resources
