CEO is a hands-on day camp (non-residential) that allows high school women to explore how engineering benefits society and impacts the world. Students can participate in any or all of the five topic-focused days:
Summer camp for 7th and 8th grade girls interested in learning more about engineering, math and science careers. Held annually in July on the Ohio Northern University campus.
Go! is a free, online magazine for teens and young adults that explores the world of transportation and the careers they can find there.
Wichita State University, a Kansas Board of Regents institution with a yearly enrollment of over 15,000 students, proudly hosts the Upward Bound Math-Science Center, commonly referred to as the “Galaxy Experience”. The Center serves high school freshmen-seniors who have the potential for success and demonstrated talent in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Services and activities undertaken by the Center are designed to increase post secondary education persistence and the capacity for students to pursue majors in STEM. It is the hope of program staff that emphasis on such courses of study will lead to careers in these areas.
