AIKEN, SC (03/30/2018) The University of South Carolina Aiken College of Sciences and Engineering hosted STEM Friday, giving high schoolers the chance to meet faculty and students and take part in related activities on campus.
Public and homeschooled students from Aiken and Saluda Counties took part in the event, which included exposure to biology, geology, exercise science, math, computer science, chemistry, physics, engineering and psychology classes and faculty. Most of the high school registrants indicated they were interested in math or engineering-related majors and careers.
Attendees got a feel for what it means to be a "Pacer in STEM." Engaging, hands-on activities helped foster awareness of STEM programs at the university.
The next STEM Friday is scheduled for the fall semester.
