While the Summer Science Program (SSP) is not on campus, MIT co-sponsors this residential program, and many MIT students are among the program’s alumni. Students at WTP focus on either Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) or Mechanical Engineering (ME). Women’s Technology Program (WTP) is a four-week summer academic and residential experience where 60 female high school students explore engineering through hands-on classes (taught by female MIT graduate students), labs, and team-based projects in the summer after their junior year.
#SUMMER PRE COLLEGE PROGRAMS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FREE#
Open to high school juniors, the program is free of charge for those selected. Participants attend college-level classes taught by distinguished faculty members and complete hands-on research. This rigorous academic program stresses advanced theory and research in mathematics, science, and engineering. Research Science Institute (RSI) brings together about 70 high school students each summer for six stimulating weeks at MIT. The program is free of charge to participating students, not including transportation. Minority Introduction to Engineering and Science (MITES) is an intensive six-week residential academic enrichment program for about 80 promising high school juniors who intend to pursue careers in science, engineering, and entrepreneurship, especially those from minority backgrounds and other underrepresented segments of the population. If studying the human genome, building a robot, or scoping out the stars sound like a fun way to spend your summer, then you might try one of these: MITES
However, several partner organizations run small, specialized programs on campus.
MIT does not offer open-enrollment summer programs where any high school student can come to campus to take courses and live in the dorms. We have prioritized selective summer programs, at MIT and elsewhere, that offer compelling intellectual content and a rigorous educational approach, a great community of like-minded peers to make friends with, and that are either free to attend or, like MIT, offer generous need-based financial aid. So here is an (incomplete) list of summer programs that MIT students have found enriching and fun. If you’re the kind of student who’d like to spend your summer learning as much hands-on math, science, and engineering as you can, you might be a good fit for MIT!
