We work in under-resourced communities and target schools which experience decreased access to funding and other resources. Our lessons and experiments, called modules, are conducted with 1 University student volunteer for every 4 elementary students, allowing for individualized attention and guidance. Modules are created in collaboration with teams of students and educators in each STEM-related field, lending access to University networks and modern learning, without expense to the schools.

In a recent study of START Science programming, students developed 22% higher overall positive attitude toward STEM by the end of the school year compared to a class without START. Over the past decade, we have expanded from our origin form 9 chapters around the world, serving more than 100 schools at multiple grade levels.
