What is EASE?

EASE is a one-day outreach program designed to expose 8th grade middle school students to nontraditional STEM careers and share with them that Nash Community College is a great first choice for STEM education. Students will visit the campus, interact with faculty/staff, and use engaging hands-on STEM activities to solve a mystery.

EASE combines video with realistic hands-on activities that highlight the science behind forensics. First, students watch a short film that sets the stage for a crime scene investigation. Students run the crime lab and use forensic science to test each piece of evidence. Experiments include electrophoresis, chromatography, blood typing, tread analysis, and powder identification.
