Mount Wachusett Community College has received funding for the 2024 STEM Starter Academy. The money will be used to help jumpstart the careers of qualifying high school graduates and MWCC students looking to earn their associate degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics programs at the college.
The STEM Starter Academy is open to high school graduates or qualifying MWCC students who place into college-level English and Math courses and are enrolling in one of MWCC’s STEM majors in the fall.
The program is designed to increase student’s success by allowing them to begin classes earlier; accelerating their degree path while creating connections with professors and other students that carry on throughout their time at MWCC.
