Women in Technology Program at MIT
Can you think of any young girls that might be interested in this program?
The Women's Technology Program at MIT is a 4-week summer residence program
to introduce high school girls to electrical engineering and computer
science. If you know a girl who is currently a high school junior with
demonstrated math and science ability and an interest in finding out about
EECS, please
encourage her to visit our website for more information and for an
application form (applications are due February 3, 2005):
http://wtp.mit.edu
Our classes are taught in a supportive environment by a staff of women MIT
PhD candidates and undergraduates. The full-time academic program includes
hands-on experiments and team-based projects in computer science, electrical
engineering, and mathematics.
Our goals are to: increase girls' interest and confidence in pursuing
computer science and engineering and make them aware of their potential for
success in these fields. Participants are selected from a nationwide applicant
pool
of girls who attend the program in the summer between their junior and
senior year in high school. No prior experience in computer programming,
physics, or electrical engineering is expected, but applicants typically have
strong academic records, especially in math and science.
Thank you for your help in communicating information about this opportunity
to girls across the country! Cynthia Skier, Director Women's Technology
