The Engineering Society of Detroit’s has found success with their Girls in Engineering Academy and are now launching the Boys in Engineering Academy (BEA) program which promises to be a transformative space that empowers scholars to live their best lives. BEA is unique as it focuses on the whole person by integrating STEM learning with a student-centered, hands-on, and project-based approach. BEA scholars are provided access to powerful STEM learning experiences that challenge them to think deeply and critically. As STEM learners, they are empowered to use STEM as a tool for personal and social change.
