E2CCB made a strong showing at last week’s STEM Wars competition, held over two days at Northwest Arena in Jamestown. Students from the Hewes Educational Center, WNY P-TECH, and CAM P-TECH took part in a variety of challenges, including robotics and job interviews.
STEM Wars brings together manufacturers, schools, suppliers, colleges, and community organizations to connect students in grades 3–12 with career pathways and opportunities in the manufacturing sector. In addition to STEM-based challenges, the event also features a career fair and tech expo.
In total, about 800 students representing 40 elementary, middle, and high schools participated in the event.
Staff from WNY P-TECH and CAM P-TECH also hosted informational tables, highlighting student pathways in STEM fields such as Mechatronics, Mechanical Technology, and Information Technology.
A special shout-out to Dream It Do It Western New York and the Manufacturers Association of the Southern Tier for another outstanding year!
