Ames High School Business Engagement Collaborative

For students who are possibly interested in STEM fields, consider looking into the Ames High School Business Engagement Collaborative (AHSBEC), which is a collaboration between ISU Research Park and the Ames Community Schools. 

Students complete projects for these businesses, giving them the opportunity to learn about project management, communication, and entrepreneurship while coming to work each day at the ISU Economic Development Core Facility. This strategic location allows students to work in a state-of-the-art facility surrounded by some of the greatest business opportunities in Iowa while receiving mentorship from ISURP employees and Iowa State students. Students not only receive on the job training and experience, but they also receive both Ames High and DMACC credit.
