Mission Statement

STEM-ED, Inc. is the parent organization of the Aerospace Robotics Competition (ARC). Our operation is a 100% volunteer run 501(c)(3) nonprofit that hosts numerous STEM activities throughout the year for high school students. Our mission is to inspire a passion for STEM by providing students with affordable activities that merge software programing and hardware engineering in an immersive, project-based competition. We teach high school students to build, code, and fly drones. We instruct students in robotics and autonomy within an ethical framework, while teaching them about engineering principles and the aerospace industry.

Description

STEM-ED, Inc. operates on a school year calendar, and we provide educational opportunities for high school students throughout the year.

Each fall, (Sept-Dec) we hold a Drone Coding Competition, this program is available to students worldwide. It is a virtual competition focused on teaching students how to code. In the late fall, early winter (Jan-May) we hold our Aerospace Robotics Competition. We have regions throughout the United States. In the summer (Jun-Jul) we hold the National Aerospace Robotics Competition. In July, in partnership with Saint Anselm College we hold a Drone Summer Camp.
