We are looking for outstanding high school seniors to join us for Boeing’s second annual Arizona STEM Signing Day!

All Arizona seniors who plan to attend a two or four-year college or university and pursue a degree or program in a STEM field (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) are eligible to apply for recognition.

What is Arizona STEM Signing Day?

Just like Signing Day for athletes, Boeing’s Arizona STEM Signing Day will celebrate students from across the state as they make their commitments to education programs focusing on science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

There is a high demand for STEM talent in the United States, and Arizona STEM Signing Day will be an opportunity to recognize the top students of STEM in the state with Boeing corporate leaders and community partners. Selected students will be invited to a ceremony and special presentation, where they will be recognized in front of their families and our esteemed guests. Students will sign “letters of intent” to their chosen STEM field at the event.

Bonus: An optional tour of the Boeing, Mesa facility to follow the ceremony. Details will be provided to selected winners.

Who should apply?

Arizona graduating high school seniors who have an interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and plan to pursue a two or four-year degree in related fields are encouraged to apply.
