What is NEM?
Each February, hundreds of Oregon K-12 classrooms are energized with engineer presenters through the National Engineers Month (NEM) program. Students get excited to excel in math and science while learning about the rewards and opportunities of being an engineer.
Since 1995, the Business Education Compact has managed this high-impact event, inviting local companies to participate and bring engineers into Oregon classrooms. In addition to engineering education, NEM infuses student learning with relevance and ignites the imagination of our future engineers!
1995 to 2010: NEM Program Impact
- 324,000 students impacted
- 11,500 classrooms reached
