ARMAS in Education
Achieving in Research, Math, and Science
We can coach you with your STEM and health career goals.
Are you headed for one of the STEM fields, pre-med or another career in the health field? We offer extra instruction, mentoring and advising so you don’t get stuck. We can even help with test prep strategies so you know what you’re in for. Need a textbook? Check out our STEM library.
Hands-on experience is vital for your STEM career. That’s why we have a student/faculty lounge and computer lab, including a makers space, for your use. We are also involved in local, regional, and international science fairs, so you can put your experience to the test. Highlands has a strong community outreach program, too, so you can get involved outside of class.
Intrigued? Stop by, or contact us via phone or email.
