Breaking Down Barriers to STEM Education
A $400,000 donation to York University’s Lassonde School of Engineering’s k2i academy, divided equally between the 407 ETR Path2STEM fund and the 407 ETR Work Integrated Learning Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion fund, is offering opportunities to underrepresented STEM students.
“With this generous donation from 407 ETR, we will continue our journey of offering paid educational experiences to underrepresented students in environments that are dynamic, innovative and collaborative” Lisa Cole, Director of Programming, Lassonde School of Engineering
