Hello Pittsburgh teachers! Carnegie Mellon University has a lot of inspirational graduate engineering students, who are enthusiastic and excited about STEAM (especially engineering) outreach!
If you are interested in having CMU students visit your classroom, either to support an upcoming lesson, or to bring an NGSS/STEELS STEAM activity, coding activity, or engineering activity to your students, please fill out our google form! As former K-12 teachers ourselves, we are looking forward to working together with you in order to support our local Pittsburgh area teachers, and K-12 students interested in engineering.

For 6-12 classrooms, we will continue to bring lessons that support coding lessons, engineering topics (hardware, AI, ML), and hands on math and physics lessons. We also support egg drops, and bridge building activities throughout the academic year in case you would like a few pairs of extra hands!
