CLOSED Program Dates: The 2024 Engineering Academy will be held in-person in a residential experience. |
Exploration of Engineering for Tomorrow's Innovators
The Engineering Summer Academy at Rutgers University provides high school students with an introduction to aerospace, biochemical, biomedical, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, environmental, forensic, industrial, material science, mechanical and systems engineering disciplines and careers. Students will enhance their math and science skills by learning how to analyze and interpret data and use quantitative models. Furthermore, students will have the opportunity to:
- Engage in hands-on, goal-directed projects and gain an understanding of how engineering is applied in the real world
- Become familiar with college campus life and how to take advantage of the wide variety of resources and infrastructure to promote your own self-development
- Learn how to document and communicate your work to peer audiences and the general public using informed and factual perspectives
This academy is for any students (high school rising juniors and seniors) who are interested in developing their skills in engineering for their future.
Please note: Our 2024 Engineering Residential Academy is now filled to capacity. Applications that are currently underway may be placed on the Wait List for that program, but admission into the residential program is not assured.
If applicants would like to move their applications to the another academy, applicants are encouraged to do so; please email precollegeacademies@docs.rutgers.edu for more information.
Our residential academies are held on campus, where the student will reside/dorm for the entire week while taking courses, eating meals, and engaging in evening activities with their cohort.
