The Midwest Alliance
If science, technology, engineering or math is in your realm of possibilities,
the Midwest Alliance can help.
Choosing your educational and career path is exciting - and sometimes scary. If you have a disability and the sciences, technology, engineering or math (STEM) is in the mix for your future possibilities, the journey may seem daunting. Will you have the support and time you need to complete assignments and tests? Will you be able to do the labs (even with accommodation)? How will you handle the demands of the job? These and other concerns may leave you wondering if STEM is the right path for you.

The Midwest Alliance has the resources to help you make informed decisions. We provide opportunities for students with disabilities in Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin to explore academic and career possibilities in STEM. Funded by the National Science Foundation, our aim is to increase the number of students with disabilities entering and succeeding in these fields.
