We create an environment for life-long learners while providing a foundation for our future leaders and workforce.

This groundbreaking initiative is not just a celebration of aviation’s rich heritage, but a profound exploration of the transformative power of STEM.

The National STEM Academy is a registered trademark program of the Museum of Aviation Foundation.  The National STEM Academy offers field trip and individual programs that integrate innovative, hands-on STEM disciplines, including the Arts such as history, literature, and more. These programs are offered for learners ages 4 through adult. Rigorous, goal-setting experiences challenge participants to solve problems and are aligned to state and national education standards.
