Overview

STeLA (Science and Technology Leadership Association) is an organization founded with the objective of developing leadership in, and creating a network of, the next generation in science and technology - scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, policymakers, etc. - who will direct and deeply influence global society. The organization is being launched by graduate students studying science and engineering at universities in the United States with the desire to answer the question, "how can science and engineering students change the global community." The founders recognized the importance of multicultural and interdisciplinary perspectives in addressing contemporary global issues, and became motivated to establish a network where we, the young generation, can exchange ideas on where we can lead the global society and how we individual can contribute to the needs of society's leadership. We then build on that network to take the first steps towards local and global action.

Established in 2007, STeLA is a student group dedicated to developing leadership in, and creating a network of, the next generation in science and technology - scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, policymakers, etc. We are organizing the STeLA Leadership Forum under the auspices of the MIT-Japan Program.
