Externships in STEM workplaces offer a professional development opportunity, which connects educators with STEM-related employers to gain industry experience. The STEM Education Center at WPI is interested in adding an externship program to its professional development offerings for secondary school teachers in central Massachusetts. We interviewed middle and high school STEM teachers, industry representatives, and other externship organizers and used their perspectives to recommend a pilot externship program design to the STEM Education Center.
