MIT scholarship program for Minority High School Juniors in Engineering, Entrepreneurship an Science
The MITEES program of MIT is accepting applications for the summer of '04. If you know of a high school junior, it invites you to apply. You can apply online at See Mites2S Application. Complete application packages must be postmarked no later than February 6, 2004. I participated in this program in 1990 and directly led to my matriculation at MIT a year later.
MITE2S (Minority Introduction to Engineering, Entrepreneurship, and Science) is a rigorous six-week residential, academic enrichment summer program for promising high school juniors who are interested in studying and exploring careers in science, engineering, and entrepreneurship. 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 in an increasingly racially and ethnically diverse nation and world. MITE2S is rooted in MIT's belief in the importance to our nation that minorities and other underrepresented segments of the population pursue higher education and careers in these fields.
The program is 100% scholarship-based. Funding from industry, foundations, and individuals covers all living and educational expenses for each admitted student. Students only pay for their transportation to and from MIT.
Selected students build self-confidence in their ability to achieve in a demanding academic atmosphere, and have a chance to work with and befriend individuals of different racial, ethnic and other backgrounds from their own, as are necessary for success in studying and pursuing careers in science and engineering in the 21st century. For its graduates, there is a strong record of successful admission to MIT and to other engineering and science universities.
