Experiencing Dream Space (Dublin)
What is STEM Passport for Inclusion?
The STEM Passport for Inclusion is a transformative national initiative designed to address inequalities in STEM education and career access for post-primary students from socially disadvantaged communities. Developed by Maynooth University in partnership with Microsoft Ireland’s Dream Space team, the programme offers Transition Year students a university-accredited qualification (Level 6 NFQ), alongside mentoring from industry role models and tailored education supports. Since its launch, over 5,000 students—primarily young women from DEIS schools—have participated, with many reporting increased confidence and aspirations to pursue STEM at third level. The programme is helping to build a more inclusive and diverse STEM future across Ireland.
