"We seek to promote New Mexico's mission in increasing enrollment in STEM fields and outreach activities through starting a state and eventually nationwide “K-12 Drone-program at NMT”. New Mexico Tech in partnership with SystemGo New Mexico wants to improve education in America by inspiring students, teachers, and administrators within the present educational system. New Mexico Tech drone program would motivate and equip high school students to develop 21st-century skills and pursue careers in STEM disciplines." - From program description
