Students will explore cutting-edge interdisciplinary topics and career paths that integrate disciplines in science, technology, engineering, art, mathematics, and medicine. This is a project-based program that combines hands-on discovery with classroom learning.

What You Will Learn:

The program facilitates students to think outside the box and go beyond a single discipline, realizing their potential as interdisciplinary engineers and scientists. Over the course of two weeks, participants will learn about a variety of undergraduate majors and career paths from a team of Rensselaer faculty working across departments. Students will also work on small-group projects and present their research and findings at the conclusion of the program. A strong focus will be placed on developing effective written technical communication and presentation skills.

Application Information:

Prerequisites: Students looking to explore a career in engineering, science, technology, and especially their crosscutting disciplines are encouraged to apply for this program. Applications will be selected based on GPA, science/tech/engineering/math related activities, student response questions, and teacher reference forms. Students must be no younger than starting 9th grade in Fall 26.
