Explore research conducted by our cadets and faculty. For the Center for Leadership and Diversity in STEM program, West Point cadets in the role of near-peer mentors work alongside faculty to lead workshops for middle and high school students around the US and at West Point. These hands-on workshops on bridge design, robotics, renewable energy, and drones spark interest in STEM among young students and introduce them to related careers.
Learn more about how our cadets (students) and faculty are constantly working to solve problems for the Academy, the Army, and the Nation. Most of these problems integrate different mathematical concepts and techniques that we teach our cadets.
