What is EMERGE?

EMERGE is a STEM – science, technology, engineering, and math enrichment program conducted locally by Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology for Shelby County students. Regularly scheduled classroom activities and presentations highlight STEM related careers in the area. Students learn from professionals working in Shelby County in STEM related fields. Rose-Hulman student mentors are available periodically to visit classrooms and events.

This program is funded by the IMPaCT partnership program and is free to Shelby County students.

How can EMERGE help me?

1. Help students adopt a proactive stance on learning and begin to create their own plan for career and educational choices.
2. Help students develop the socio-cognitive skills to bridge the transition into high school, college, and the workforce.

Provide a consistent, reliable source of encouragement and advice, including scheduled or ad hoc online tutoring for academic subjects and help with homework.
