An Australia-wide search is on for the next Superstars of STEM. Since 2017 Superstars of STEM has created 210 science, technology, engineering and mathematics media stars.
It is open to women and non-binary STEM professionals. The program is run by Science & Technology Australia, funded by the Australian Government, and supported by partner organisations Google and the Australian Department of Defence.
“The Superstars of STEM program powerfully drives diversity in science and technology and creates media stars from the program participants. Seeing someone that looks or sounds like you can powerfully promote science and technology careers to young Australians,” said Science & Technology Australia Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Superstars of STEM Program Manager Sandra Gardam.
"The program gives them the confidence and skills they need to share their expertise with the public through the media, and has created many highly-recognised science communicators.”
