Science for All Youth Summit
Explore STEM careers in new and exciting ways at the Science for All Youth Summit!
Designed for Grades 4 – 7
Morehead Planetarium and Science Center, on the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill, invites inspiring local scientists and UNC students to lead hands-on STEM activities for underserved and underrepresented groups in STEM. Past activities have included microscope marvels, lemon electricity, and building biomechanics. Event t-shirt, swag items, and a meal included.
This event focuses on underserved and underrepresented groups in STEM and connects with local community groups as well as a small volume of public registrants. Registration for this program will open in early 2026.
This event is part of the North Carolina Science Festival (NCSciFest), an annual statewide initiative of Morehead.
This year’s Youth Summit is made possible thanks to the generous support of Gilead Sciences.
