Alumni of the National Youth Science Academy’s programs are responsible in many ways for the organization’s continued success. While we are extremely grateful for the monetary donations many of our alumni make, perhaps more important is the expertise they share as presenters in our programs.

As leaders in their fields, our alumni are able to give back to the NYSAcademy by presenting lectures and directed studies on cutting edge STEAM topics. These presenters and guests also provide inspiration and mentorship for our program participants, demonstrating that scientists are people too, with human interests and personal stories. This personal interaction between experts and our participants is critical in the promotion of science as a viable study and career path for young people.

Without this crucial contribution, the National Youth Science Academy wouldn’t be able to operate its unique programs. If you are interested in sharing your knowledge, time, and enthusiasm, please contact us. If you are interested in supporting the NYSAcademy financially, you can donate here.

In addition to the presenter program, the links below include other ways for alums to interact with each other and to stay connected with NYSAcademy.

Our alumni have been crucial in supporting and shaping the National Youth Science Academy since its beginning. We deeply appreciate all the efforts to promote and secure the future of the NYSAcademy. We especially love being able to share our alumni’s achievements and success stories. If you have news you’d like to share, then please contact us.
