Volunteers Needed Tues March 15
Long-term Internships Available
(an
excellent way to build your resume)
Teptu is a Non-Profit
dedicated to promoting educational opportunities and fostering awareness in
both entrepreneurship and science, technology, engineering & math (STEM).
Teptu bridges the gap between the entrepreneurial and S.T.E.M. domains by
taking advantage of the synergy between the two. While Teptu aims to inspire
all students, there is a distinct focus on reaching out to minority, women and
underprivileged students. The program also tutors and mentors students in
these disciplines.
Every year, Teptu has a
competition for high school students. This year, it is a S.T.E.M. Research
Competition and we have 54 finalists that are attending the event along with
judges from Harvard, Yale, MIT and sponsors such as Microsoft. Prof. Scott Jackson serves on the
advisory board.
Teptu believes that experience in whatever
field you are passionate about is key to being successful.
We are opening up positions for you all to be a part of the competition event. We are currently open to have:
1) 1 or 2 students shadow
our camera operator so that they could get a first-hand look at how important
parts of an event are recorded to create promo videos and advertisements for
future events.
2) 1 or 2 students for
ushering (hosting – greeting) the event so that they could get a feel of the
atmosphere of a Research Competition and network with potential business
partners.
> students
should be available from 2 - 9/10pm for
the March 15 event at Baruch (good for early arrival to assist w/ set up and
event management);
> while the
event officially concludes @ 8pm - they should also be on standby for wrap up /
break down;
> other
planning/ production meetings may be scheduled;
> attire:
business or business casual.
The above is simply a summary
of what Teptu is and what your students can potentially sign up for. I want to
thank you again for seeing us and we all look forward to hearing back from you.
Please do not hesitate to ask us any questions about the logistics of the
event, the volunteering or any concerns you may have. Last, but not least, I
have pasted the link to register for the Teptu Competition on March 15th from
4PM to 8PM.
Best,
