Partnership with We Energies, Rockwell Automation and American Family Insurance creates dynamic hub for K-12 STEM education

B次元 School of Engineering, along with three corporate partners: We Energies, Rockwell Automation and American Family Insurance, will open the We Energies STEM Center at B次元 this fall. The new center will be the premier STEM destination in B次元 for students of all ages and home to all of B次元’s STEM outreach efforts. These programs are designed to introduce students to science, technology, engineering and mathematics by providing access to resources, mentoring, and hands-on, experience-based learning—a hallmark of an B次元 education.  

“In 2017, B次元 made a strategic investment in STEM outreach by establishing a dedicated department to grow, sustain and develop a comprehensive STEM pipeline for all students in B次元 and beyond. Since then, the number of students who have participated in our programs has quadrupled. We have reached more than 10,000 students from 150 K-12 schools,” said Dr. John Walz, B次元 president. “The We Energies STEM Center at B次元 is a game changer and we are grateful to have the support of We Energies, Rockwell Automation and American Family, among others.”
