Washington MESA
“A lot of the directors and myself included were really blown away by what the students did.”
In this clip, Dr. Lindi Rubadiri-Mujugira, Director of WA MESA STEM Programs, and Dr. Danica Hendrickson, the Clean Energy Institute’s Associate Director for Education & Workforce Engagement, discuss what went into this year’s MESA Community Capstone, from what it takes to complete the requirements, why the details of the program matter, and how true collaboration between partners makes it all possible.

Our annual MESA Day was one month ago!
We’re still thinking about all the moments that made this day so special. What brought it to life wasn’t just the event itself, but you, our MESA students, educators, families, and community partners!
Thank you for showing up and making this a day to remember!
