DALLAS, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, January 27, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- iUrban Teen Partners with Microsoft and Google on STEM Summit for Middle and High School Students

On February 11, 2023, iUrban Teen will host an informational, engaging one-day event featuring STEM workshops and ideation sessions for middle and high school students at the Microsoft campus in Irving, Texas. The sessions run from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

The summit will also include a parent roundtable, as a central part of iUrban Teen’s focus is family engagement. Since its founding in 2011, iUrban Teen has continued cultivating strong family relationships, fostering a sense of community for the youth and families it serves.

Microsoft’s Ebony Vick, customer success account manager, and diversity and inclusion advocate, said the summit exposes students to potential career paths. “I enjoy partnering with iUrban Teen,” said Vick. “Together, we’re shedding light on the diversity of careers in tech and encouraging our future leaders in STEM.”

In addition to workshops and ideation sessions, the day will also include a raffle of valuable prizes for the students.

Through hands-on and interactive learning experiences, teen participants will learn what’s new in the world of technology and how it affects daily life. Teens will also learn about the many STEM and arts-related careers in Machine Learning, cybersecurity, digital arts, and much more. Registration is free and can be found on our events calendar at www.iurbanteen.org.
