The GloabThe Global Stem Alliance is recruiting students ages 13-17 from around the world to participate in pioneering their virtual STEM mentoring programs: 1000 Girls, 1000 Futures and The Junior Academy. While both programs use online mentoring platforms enabling participants to interact from anywhere in the world, there are a few key elements that make each opportunity unique
1000 Girls, 1000 Futures connects STEM-focused high school girls with a network of dynamic, motivated female mentors for a year-long STEM development program. Participants gain access to innovative programming focused on building essential 21st century skills and connect with like-minded peers from around the world! Students must be female-identifying in order to participate.
The Junior Academy introduces exceptional students to an online community where they gain access to best-in-class STEM resources and work together to solve real-world problems. STEM professionals mentor student teams during 60-day innovation challenges, with multiple challenges a year for participants to choose from.
This is an incredible opportunity and we’d love your help in spreading this message! Any 13-17 year old with a passion for STEM and proficiency in English can start their application here. Applications are now open and will be due by July 31st, 2020.
Students are welcome to apply to both programs, if eligible. Students who are already enrolled in The Junior Academy do NOT need to reapply to the program. Students who have participated in 1000 Girls, 1000 Futures and would like to take part in the program again will receive a separate link to sign up.
