Over the course of a week, 12 high school students built skills, connect with mentors, and gained hands-on exposure to STEM and agriculture-related fields, all while forming a network of peers who share their drive and passion.

"After attending NDiSTEM, I feel more inspired than ever to pursue my passion for STEM. The discussions, insights, and support from my peers have not only expanded my knowledge but have also reinforced my belief that we’re all capable of breaking boundaries.

24 students with migrant agricultural backgrounds attended Agricultural Sciences’ Summer Program/ OSU Junior MANRRS Summer Leadership Institute to promote and enhance leadership, higher education, professionalism, communication, community, and culture.
