Starbase Minnesota

A 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, founded in 1993 whose mission is to educate and inspire youth in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Since 1993, STARBASE has served over Twin Cities’ youth. STARBASE is a program of the Department of Defense and Minnesota National Guard who provide a state of the art facility, access to an exciting, technology-rich environment, inkind services and volunteers. STARBASE partners with area school districts to provide STEM programming and corporate partners to provide financial/inkind support, and volunteer scientists and engineers to programs. In the fall of 2017, STARBASE expanded to Duluth, Minnesota on the 148th Fighter Wing of the MN National Guard. STARBASE has a 19-member Board of Directors with backgrounds in business, education, military and government. There are 64 STARBASE locations in the U.S. in 35 states. We are currently reaching out to alumni of the school year program to answer some survey questions to look at the effects of the program.
