Mini University


Mini-University is a free event designed to encourage underrepresented high school students in the Bay Area to pursue careers in STEM. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with current engineering students and STEM professors, engage in hands-on engineering activities, learn about various STEM career pathways, tour academic labs, and much more!


Students of all genders are welcome to apply and we especially encourage students from first-generation, low-income, and/or minority backgrounds to apply! Spots are limited and applications are accepted on a first-come-first-served basis, with priority given to students from underserved communities. This event is geared towards 9th, 10th, and 11th grade students who are considering majoring in science, technology, engineering, or math related fields (or who simply want to learn more about what a STEM career would be like)!


Mini University for Fall 2024 will be held in person on Wednesday, November 20.


The application deadline is November 1st, 2024 at 11:59pm PST.
