SUMMER RESEARCH ACADEMIES
(RISING 7TH - RISING 9TH GRADES)

Looking for an advanced science or engineering experience this summer that is both fun and educational?  Explore advanced topics in small (10 person), lab-based experiences guided by experienced scientists and engineers. Each week is a different topic, but in each we work as a lab team to research a topic, build or experiment each day, learn new lab or engineering skills, and most of all, have fun doing real studies in advanced topics.  Experiences range from building drones to studying genetically modified organisms.
