Taught by MIT students, this highly competitive enrichment program for girls serves rising high school seniors. Students enroll in one of two tracks: electrical engineering and computer science or mechanical engineering. The program is designed specifically for girls who have excelled in math and science but who have very little or no prior background in engineering or computer science. Both tracks feature intensive classroom sessions, projects, guest speakers, and lab tours and field trips.
