Folks,

We are beginning the NFB Science and Engineering division's 2025 registration program. Below you will find instructions for registering with the division, making a STEM scholarship donation, joining the division's e-mail list, and joining the mentor program.

STEM Scholarship Donations

The Science and Engineering Division and the Computer Science Division are raising funds for a $8000 "Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics" (STEM) scholarship given by the NFB, to a worthy student at the NFB convention.

Please consider donating to the NFB towards this scholarship.

Once your donation has been submitted, you will receive an automatic acknowledgment of your donation. Please forward this donation acknowledgement to John Miller (Johnmillerphd at hotmail.com) so that he can track our progress towards our funding goal.

SEDNFB Mentoring Project

The Science and Engineering division's STEM Mentorship Program Was developed by Newton Nguyen, Gene Kim, and Kennedy Stomberg to pair STEM students with mentors. One of the program's activities is to host a monthly STEM seminar where students and mentors can discuss STEM techniques.

The mentor program registration form is located at:
