MathWorks STEM Outreach Program

At MathWorks, we engage the next generation of scientists and engineers by supporting STEM outreach worldwide. Our goal is to help learners develop essential skills for the future through hands-on experience with MATLAB and Simulink.

Educators and students can get access to a rich array of resources, including courseware, interactive workshops, and guest speaker sessions. The MathWorks STEM Outreach Program also provides complimentary access to MATLAB and Simulink for eligible organizations.

Kids enjoy learning together on laptops, collaborating and smiling as they work through an engaging computer activity in a classroom setting.

How We Support You

Through this program, MathWorks collaborates with eligible organizations to:

  • Provide complimentary MATLAB and Simulink licenses
  • Support educator training and professional development
  • Enhance STEM skills for learners of all ages
  • Help students explore STEM by connecting them to engaging content and speakers
  • Develop engaging STEM activities or resources

Impact in Action

MathWorks partners with a range of global STEM outreach initiatives, from curriculum development and nonprofit organizations to university-led programs.
