The FermIQ Bioreactor Discovery STEM kit is intentionally designed to mirror an industry-inspired scale-up process. The student will progress through a sequence of hands-on experiments—including a chemistry lab, a yeast fermentation lab, and an integrated process control lab—bringing real bioprocess concepts to life in an age-appropriate way.
Each kit transforms the classroom into a miniature biotechnology lab, where students explore how living cells are monitored, controlled, and optimized to produce everyday essentials like food, medicine, and sustainable materials.
The FermIQ Bioreactor Discovery STEM kit is built to:
Increase early awareness of biotechnology careers
Introduce bioprocess thinking in an accessible, age-appropriate way
Build scientific confidence in elementary and middle school students
Support educators with limited STEM resources
Deliver industry-aligned learning through hands-on exploration
Our STEM kit transforms curiosity into real-world application, empowering students to see themselves as future innovators in biotechnology.
