Who We Are

ISTC Education is a 501(c)(3) focused on creating pathways of access to STEM opportunities and resources for all students across Illinois. Our programs help change what STEM education and experiences can look like by partnering corporate mentors with students in the classroom and focusing on real-world problems. In taking this approach we empower students to build the capacity of experience to see themselves as a contributing part of the workforce and the purveyors of solutions to current and future challenges.

What We Do

We pave the way for the next generation of innovators by connecting high school students to mentors and developing a stronger, more inclusive talent pipeline in Illinois. Through our programs—STEM Challenges, Mentor Matching Engine, The 6 x 3 Project, and Teacher Externships—we’ve paired thousands of students and teachers from across the state with mentors from around the world.
