- Interact with guest speakers from academia and industry as you learn about cutting-edge research and new career opportunities in STEM and non-STEM fields
- Collaborate with peers in small breakout sessions to analyze data, policies, current topics, and more
- Develop college-level skills such as research, writing, and communication through group and individual projects
Program Details:
- This program was intended for high school students (rising 9-12 graders) with a strong interest in climate and sustainability.
