YES! Expo to Include 20,000-Plus Students, Organizers Say
A key part of attracting and retaining businesses is developing a workforce that understands and loves science. That's why events like the one coming up at Detroit's Ford Field are so important.
A capacity crowd of more than 20,000 is expected to head into the football palace Thursday for the 2006 YES! Expo, an event aimed at inspiring middle and high school students to pursue education careers in science and engineering. The expo will bring together companies and universities from throughout Michigan for a day of presentations, speakers, exhibits, a visit from Bill Nye, the Science Guy (pictured) and more. Participants include dozens of corporations and other organizations, including all 15 of the state's public universities and a number of private colleges.
The YES! Expo is sponsored by Michigan Technological University. For more details, click here.
