National STEM Contest 2025
STEM Education President’s Introduction
STEM Education has developed a STEM national contest in Greece and South Europe for the past decade and is now implementing it in Lake Charles and Louisiana. The competition in Louisiana is “Can we live on Mars?”
The competition has been announced on air, and we would like to invite the education community to Lake Charles to participate. Please visit our website to see details and also the announcement of webinars.
Teams have six months to prepare and present projects based on a competition theme. Students form teams, mentor coaches, parents manage time, and coaches are free. The competition involves analysis, opinion exchange, source management, group decisions, and the implementation of ideas. Knowledge exchange is free, with a perpetual cycle.
At the same time, free training seminars will be held for the coaches of the teams participating in the National STEM Contest.
The educational seminars will be held remotely.
Mark Arseneault's Introduction
The Future Engineers’ STEM Competition 2025 is an excellent opportunity for students in Louisiana to showcase their STEM skills and compete with other students from across state and around the world. The contest promotes STEM education and encourages students to develop their problem-solving abilities. The competition also provides an opportunity for students to gain recognition for their achievements and to inspire others to pursue STEM education and careers. This Louisiana STEM initiative aims to better prepare students to seek a STEM degree in college or enter the workforce having earned certifications in high-wage career sectors. The initiative emphasizes connections across the individual STEM disciplines and offers students an opportunity to develop their problem-solving abilities.
