The Mechanical Engineering Dept at NMT is happy to announce the successful launch of our 6th-12th grade robotics program including class material and virtual NMT student classroom visits. The program was developed in conjunction with the NM-MESA program and culminates in a tournament on New Mexico Tech's campus where 6-12th graders get to compete against each other and watch Mechanical Engineering student teams compete against each other. We would like to invite schools and STEM education organizations to register for our robot combat coding and design curriculum.
To get more information on the program and arrange for NMT students to help you get the program running fill out this inquiry form.
The Mechanical Eng. Dept. would also like to invite your organization to come participate in or watch the next tournament April 23rd 2022 at NMT in Socorro.

The Master of Science for Teachers Program is a graduate degree program that allows licensed K-12 teachers with a bachelor's degree in any subject and at least one year of teaching experience to earn their master's degree in STEM education while they continue to work. No GRE is required.
Coursework emphasizes laboratory and field exercises as students review traditional science and math skills, as well as explore recent advances in the STEM field. MST students are encouraged to develop classroom and laboratory activities that will be used in their own classrooms.
Courses are offered primarily through distance learning; there are also optional, hands-on courses offered on-campus during the summer semester.
