In 2023/24, the Eurofins Foundation is supporting the programme “UpSkill for the MAP STEM Students”.
This project’s objective is to provide direct financial support to Maynooth Access Programme (MAP) students studying STEM subjects, increasing access and participation in high-impact career readiness programmes.
This will be achieved by targeting MAP STEM students to get involved in UpSkill, as it equips them to become future ready by providing high-impact experiential learning opportunities that prepare them for the world of work, life and engaged citizenship.
This project contributes to the following United Nations Sustainable Development Goal
