Students will have the unique opportunity to learn about coding, neuroscience, engineering, art-making, art history, college essay writing, and more. During the two-week STEM program, about 40 rising high school seniors are granted the special opportunity of living in one of the Residential Colleges, returning home on the weekend between each one week-long session. Residential Advisors (RA) will live with students in the Residential Colleges, and their primary responsibility will be to supervise and mentor residential students.
