TACNY Junior Café Scientifique
TACNY Junior Café Scientifique, a program for middle-school students, features discussions between STEM professionals/academics and students about topics in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics in an informal atmosphere, and seeks to encourage students to consider careers in these areas. Students must be accompanied by an adult, and can explore the MOST at no cost immediately following the event.
The program begins at 9:30, with continental breakfast available at 9:15. Attendees are welcome to spend the day at the MOST after the event.
