Society for Engineering Education, 2011 Stimulating K-12 Student Interest through Industry, Engineering College and K-12 School PartnershipsAbstractIndustries that employ engineers have an interest in supporting the children of their communitiesthrough pipeline programs to encourage K-12 students to develop interest and excel inmathematics, science, technology, and engineering. This can be accomplished by supporting theefforts of local K-12 schools to encourage students to pursue careers in STEM fields. We havefound that industry often has funding and a base of volunteers but may lack the knowledge, staff,and other means to effectively work with K-12 schools to accomplish these STEM educationgoals.This gap can be
