STEM Showcase
The STEM Showcase is surely an annual event highlighting our students as well as the projects they’ve already worked hard on all climates and seasons.
On Saturday, April 22, 2017, students put in place posters, tables, experiments, prototypes, and also projects in Moser Hall so guests could examine the students’ knowledge as well as effort. Facilities were designed for touring for example the Center for Innovation in Additive Manufacturing, YSU’s bragworthy 3D printing lab.
