STEM-UP Leadership Experience Begins!

Last week marked the start of the STEM-UP Leadership Experience presented by the College of Science and Technology.  This program attracts about 100 high school students to Temple's main campus to participate in a variety of STEM activities for six weeks during the summer.  Activities include content lectures in Chemistry, Biology, and Physics; Knewton math practice; computer science projects; and engineering design projects - SEADAP, SeaGlide, Vex Robotics, and chemistry labs.  The program also includes a field trip to the Navy Yard, where students learn about engineering in the military, as well as professional opportunities for them as high school students. The culminating event invites parents and families to see the skills and projects developed over the summer presented and showcased by the students. We look forward to an engaging and fun summer this year at STEM-UP!
