This no-cost program offers college credits, hands-on project-based learning, and mentorship, preparing students for university-level STEM studies.
The City College of New York (CCNY) STEM Institute Summer program is a no-cost STEAM initiative designed for middle and high school students, offering an immersive, hands-on learning experience. Participants engage in real-world projects, such as the "STEAMworks" design challenge, where they reimagine urban spaces like Pedestrian Plazas to improve safety, accessibility, and community value through design, engineering, and technology. This project-based approach allows students to apply theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios, fostering innovation and collaborative problem-solving. The comprehensive curriculum blends academic rigor with practical application, enabling students to explore diverse STEM fields. Course offerings include cutting-edge topics like Artificial Intelligence for Machine Learning, App Development, and Robotics, alongside foundational subjects such as Calculus, Financial Management, and Architecture. Through these courses, students gain essential critical thinking, analytical, and creative skills, often culminating in significant research projects and public presentations at a Research Symposium. The program is specifically designed to prepare students for the demands of college-level STEM studies, providing valuable opportunities to earn both high school elective and college credits. Mentorship from CCNY faculty and dedicated undergraduate students further enriches the learning environment, fostering a passion for discovery, academic excellence, and future careers in STEM fields.
Students attend classes and engage in hands-on activities from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM, with a break for lunch.
Ideal for middle and high school students from diverse backgrounds who are eager to explore STEM fields, gain college-level preparation, and pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
