STEM AQDay
STEM AQDay - Date coming soon!
If you are interested in pursuing a STEM (science, technology, engineering or math), health sciences, nursing, or kinesiology career - this day is for you!
High school students are invited to the AQ campus for a fun-filled day of discovery in the STEM fields. Explore our natural arboretum (our campus is 117 acres of trees, creeks and ponds), hear from current students, have lunch with potential classmates and meet and chat with faculty from your specific area of interest. To expand your analytical mind, we also have some great sessions prepared for you. All sessions will be led by Aquinas faculty and current students. Space is limited in most sessions.
