First chapter live at IIANT — McKinney, Texas

Making STEM
Accessible to
Every Student

STEMX is a student-led nonprofit teaching medicine and engineering to high schoolers. We run through school chapters — students teaching students, working on things they actually finish.

Track 01 — Medicine

For students headed into health care

How the body works, how clinicians reason through a problem, and what the field actually looks like from the inside — taught by students a few steps further along the same path.

Track 02 — Engineering

Design it, build it,
find out what broke

Students work through the engineering process on projects they can hold in their hands, instead of reading about it. The point is to finish something.

What STEMX Is

Run by students,
for students

01 — Who runs it

Entirely student-led

Every officer is a student. Nobody is paid. The people running sessions are the people who sat through them a year earlier, which is most of the reason it works.

02 — Structure

Two tracks

Medicine and engineering, running in parallel. Students pick one or move between them.

03 — Model

Chapter-based

STEMX lives inside schools. Each chapter runs its own sessions on its own schedule.

04 — Status

Nonprofit

Not a business. Whatever comes in goes back into running the programs.

01 Field visit

Itkan Robotics

A day inside the warehouse of the Texas state champions, on the build floor of one of the strongest robotics programs in the state.

02 Guest session

Deepen AI

Company leadership sat down with the club and walked through what the work looks like from inside the industry.

03 Competition

Science fair, ISEF circuit

Members took real projects to the Texas A&M regional fair that feeds the International Science and Engineering Fair.

That is the whole list. STEMX started at one school, and we would rather say so than pad the map. New chapters open where a student decides to start one.
