About Science, engineering and mathematics link inc
Science, Engineering and Mathematics Link Inc. (SEM Link) is a nonprofit organization that was established in 2005 by Tokiwa T. Smith in Atlanta, Georgia. The organization's primary objective is to provide K-12 students with exposure to the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) community as it believes that such exposure is critical for students pursuing STEM careers.
SEM Link has been working tirelessly over the years to bridge the gap between underrepresented communities and STEM fields. The organization has been successful in achieving this goal through its various programs and initiatives aimed at providing students with hands-on experiences in STEM fields.
One of SEM Link's flagship programs is its Math and Science Career Academy (MASCA). MASCA provides middle school students with an opportunity to explore different career paths within STEM fields through workshops, field trips, mentorship opportunities, and other activities.
Another program offered by SEM Link is its Experimental Design Program (EDP). EDP provides high school students with an opportunity to work on research projects alongside professionals from various industries. This program helps students develop their research skills while also exposing them to different career paths within STEM fields.
In addition to these programs, SEM Link also offers a variety of other initiatives aimed at promoting STEM education among K-12 students. These include science fairs, robotics competitions, coding camps, and more.
SEM Link's efforts have not gone unnoticed as the organization has received numerous awards for its work in promoting diversity within STEM fields. In 2019 alone, SEM Link received recognition from organizations such as the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), Women Who Code Atlanta Chapter (WWC), and many others.
Overall, Science Engineering and Mathematics Inc.'s commitment towards promoting diversity within STEM fields makes it a valuable asset for K-12 communities across America. Its innovative programs have helped countless young people discover their passion for science while also providing them with opportunities that they may not have had otherwise.
