oSTEM at Mines
Welcome to the oSTEM at Colorado School of Mines homepage! We are the official organization at Mines for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people (LGBTQ+), as well as straight supporters & allies.
We offer many opportunities for students to become involved with our chapter through weekly meetings, social events, and advocacy. This is a great challenge-by-choice organization in which you can decide which activities you want to participate in and which ones you may not want to. Additionally, this organization offers various professional meetings with companies and prepares students with easily transferrable communication and problem-solving skills.
If you have any other ideas for activities that oSTEM does not currently have planned, please email us or complete our contact form.
