CORNING (continued)


STEM Student Programs Opportunities like high school student internships and the National Society of Black Engineers Pre-College Initiative (NSBE PCI) introduce students to hands on STEM activities as they prepare for pursuits in higher education. Additionally, Corning sponsors the Partner-in-Education program that sends scientists to local elementary, middle and senior high school classrooms. We also sponsor summer student experiences at Corning’s R&D center and engage science and math teachers in industry seminars and experiences. The local Science and Discovery Center organization offers in-school experimental science programs and supervised off-hours science experiences at the Center itself.
