Description: Minority Introduction to Engineering and Science (MITES) is a rigorous six-week residential academic enrichment program for rising high school seniors – many of whom come from underrepresented or underserved communities – who have a strong academic record and are interested in studying and exploring careers in science and engineering. This national program stresses the value and reward of pursuing advanced technical degrees and careers while developing the skills necessary to achieve success in science and engineering.
Eligible students can apply online at summerapp.mit.edu during the fall semester of their junior year in high school. The Summer application will be available on the application site in late Fall.
It's free!
All educational, food and boarding costs are generously covered by our funders.
