Underrepresented groups in the STEM field encompass several dimensions of identity, including Hispanic or Latino, Black or African American, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and Native American or Alaska Native racial and ethnic groups, persons with disabilities, veterans, and/or individuals who belong to the LGBTQ+ communities.
3M has a long tradition of philanthropy and volunteer initiatives that progress STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) equity and skilled trades as bridges of opportunity. The company is increasing their support through a plan to invest $50 million over five years to address racial opportunity gaps through workforce development and STEM education initiatives.
The RISE Event will give participants the opportunity to:
- Further professional development and gain skills to better navigate industry recruitment
- Hear from leading 3M researchers and R&D executives
- Network with a community of emerging scientific talent and hear about their research experiences
- Experience a virtual tour of our technologies in the 3M World of Innovation Center
- Learn about the recruiting process and career opportunities from 3M managers and talent acquisition
