The 5th Annual Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics (STEM) Exploration Community Event hosted by the Coastal Virginia STEM Hub and the NASA eClips Education Team from the National Institute of Aerospace Center for Integrative STEM Education (NIA-CISE) lit up the Professional Workforce Development Center at Virginia Peninsula Community College on Saturday, November 8, 2025. The hard work of 12 NASA eClips STEM Student Ambassadors brought extraordinary energy, expertise, and heart to the more than 1,000 attendees on National STEM Day.
The STEM Student Ambassador Program was initiated to help grow the STEM ecosystem in coastal Virginia by extending the reach of the NASA eClips Education Team. The Ambassadors are high school students selected through a highly competitive regional recruiting process who undergo a rigorous training with the NASA eClips Education Team and NASA Science Communication interns.
