Body, Mind & STEM

Build community while you learn skills for developing a better body and mind. Body, Mind & STEM is an inclusive STEM based program that looks at the physical body and mind through the scope of STEM; while considering how textbook science, technology, engineering, and mathematics play into our everyday lives specifically within ourselves as human beings. Students get to participate in science experiments that relate to discussion topics pertaining to the body and mind. With help from comprehensive health and wellness curriculums, along with instructor created lab experiments; students get to receive a holistic experience that provides a sense of self-awareness, STEM exploration, and college readiness.
