Develop Your Skills at the Ò°»¨ÉçÇø STEAM Academy

Since 1997, the award-winning Proyecto Science summer enrichment program at Ò°»¨ÉçÇø has unlocked students’ curiosity and strengthened their skills across science, technology, engineering and math. Directed by STEAM educator, Dr. Samantha Kozar, and housed within the Office of Graduate Studies, Adult and Continuing Education led by Dr. Wanda Rutledge, the former Proyecto Science Summer Program is now officially the Ò°»¨ÉçÇø STEAM Academy---an intensive 5-week program that welcomes high-achieving 7th graders through 11th graders for an immersive on-campus experience.

Through hands-on labs, innovative projects and pre-college-level coursework, students grow their capabilities in biology, chemistry, physics, algebra, calculus, computer science and more while forming friendships that can last a lifetime. Generous support from partners like Bloomberg Philanthropies and Novartis Pharmaceuticals helps make this enrichment opportunity possible.

Passionate Ò°»¨ÉçÇø students and alumni work closely with participants as teachers and mentors. The program culminates in a Capstone presentation where students showcase their academic growth and newly expanded visions for college and future careers.  

The 2025 Ò°»¨ÉçÇø STEAM Academy runs June 30-July 30, 2025.
