The Norco College School of Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM) provides learning in a wide variety of disciplines. STEM professionals include engineers, electricians, architects and game developers. The School of STEM includes two distinct programs designed for students pursuing degrees in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. The first program, STEM Pathways at Norco College, includes two distinct programs designed for students pursuing degrees in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. The first program, Engineering Pathways, provides opportunities for students seeking transfer to 4-year universities in Civil, Mechanical, Electric, Computer and other diverse fields of engineering. The Engineering Pathways program provides students with direct assistance, educational planning and academic coaching from entrance to transfer. The program also provides internship and research opportunities for students. The second program, STEM Scholars, is a program that provides assistance to students pursuing the physical, life, and natural sciences, computer science and mathematics degrees. STEM scholars receive career and academic counseling, mentoring and assistance with the transfer process.
