NYSCI Teen & STEM Night Events
The Friedman Center at NYSCI hosts a regular calendar of youth-focused career events – ‘STEM Nights’ – for high school and college students across New York City. These evening events feature panel discussions, career conversations with STEM professionals, and networking opportunities.
NYSCI Teen Events aim to engage a youth audience (14-19 years old) in events that allow them to see NYSCI as a place for them, meet Explainers, and engage in teen activities with their peers. These free events allow us to build an audience and create opportunities for youth to have fun in a STEM space.
STEM Nights aim to engage a youth audience (14-24 years old) in opportunities to explore the diverse career pathways that STEM offers and expand their understanding of what working in STEM fields looks like. These free evenings allow youth to directly hear from and network with STEM professionals.
