STEM Outreach

The Air Force Research Laboratory hires some of the best scientists and engineers in the country, challenging them to find solutions to problems our warfighters face today and to perform research and development for the military needs of the future. The STEM Outreach program was developed based on this initiative. Our mission is to inspire students to consider STEM careers, especially in the fields of:

  • Robotics
  • Material Science
  • Advanced Manufacturing
  • Optics/Photonics
  • Bio-Technology
  • Computer Science/Simulation
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering

By partnering with FIRST® Programs and the AFRL Scholars Program we are actively engaging students across Northwest Florida from Pensacola to Tallahassee to consider a career in science.
