"The annual training conference allows new Science Ambassadors to turn their scientific passions into presentations meant to engage and inspire underprivleged students. The Ambassadors also gain valuable experience with public speaking, and have the opportunity to network with like-minded students from colleges all over the world." – Samuel Ellman '18
Sending students to the RPI Science Ambassador Training.
Your donations will allow us to train new Science Ambassadors, who in turn share their passion and communication ability with the wider community. Science Ambassadors often go on to become student leaders, due in large part to the skills that they learned with the program.
The Rensselaer Science Ambassadors are an assembly of highly motivated undergraduate students focused on inspiring a younger audience to explore the role of science, technology, engineering, and math in society. In addition to the above mission, this program allows RPI students the experience of speaking on technical concepts to a non-technical audience. This produces RPI students with the strongest communication skills and practical leadership qualities that transform them into valuable assets in the workforce.
