NYU Courant Institute Girls’ Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Summer Program


NYU GSTEM (http://cims.nyu.edu/gstem/) is a six-week program patterned after a similar program at MIT. High school girls will live at home and commute to internship sites for 4.5 weeks. They will work on a small project alongside researchers in the mathematical and physical sciences, produce a brief paper about their work, and deliver a short oral presentation to their peers. A week of preparatory lectures and workshops will precede the internship. One day in each of the other weeks will be a 'campus day', when the girls will be brought together for lectures, workshops, and field trips. Tutors will support participants. They will help them adjust to laboratory work, prepare their final talk and paper, and provide other intellectual and emotional supports.

A short calendar of events: 

July 8 -12: Preparatory lectures and workshops 

July 15 - August 13: Internships and campus days (Wednesdays) 

August 14-16: Final convocation and conclusion of program


The Sloan Foundation grant pays for all of the cost of this program except for the tuition of $2600 for each student. There are scholarships available for students who cannot afford the full tuition.

If you are a girl who is a high school junior and believe you would perform well in this rich but rigorous environment, complete the application online by June 12 at (http://cims.nyu.edu/gstem/apply/). Admissions will be on a rolling basis.
