7th Annual HBCU STEM Education Run

Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are an oasis of cultural significance, both past and present, and are leading sources for black graduates. However, the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) are still lacking proper representation of minority groups, including women. The HBCU STEM Education Run (STEMER) is a virtual run that strives to raise funds and awareness through fitness. Each year, funds are dedicated to an HBCU. Our signature 5K supports our mission to "Educate, Empower, and Elevate HBCU STEM Students through Scholarships and Career Resources". Race alone, with a friend, or with a team. Whether you are an HBCU alum/student, STEM graduate, or just passionate about education, this run is for you! Come join us virtually or in Huntsville, AL to support STEM education at these crucial institutions. ** USATF Certified Course ** SCHEDULE: 7:30 AM: Onsite Packet Pickup (Please note onsite REGISTRATION ends exactly at 8:15 AM) 8:00 AM: Pre-race Welcome Program 8:30 AM: Race Start 9:45 AM (tentatively): Award Ceremony and Scholarship Presentation Commemorative medal available as an add-on Strollers welcome Driving distance from: Birmingham: 102 milesChattanooga: 102 milesNashville: 110 milesAtlanta: 180 milesMemphis: 212 milesKnoxville: 218 miles
