Jack and Jill Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead @ Pepper Canyon Hall (room 109)
Oct 21 @ 8:00 am – 1:30 pm

he IDEA Student Center, The National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), and the North San Diego County Jack and Jill Foundation hosts a full day program for underrepresented 3rd-12 grade students to be exposed to a range of fun and engaging learning activities related to engineering and technology. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2014, African-Americans represented only 5.5% of the country’s engineering workforce. Our commitment is to increase the number of all historically underrepresented students in the field of S.T.E.A.M (Science-Technology-Engineering-Art-Mathematics), especially African American students and expose African American students and their parents/families to UC San Diego and the overall process of pursuing higher education.
