HU MSEIP Program for High School Students

The Howard University Minority Science and Engineering Improvement Program (HU 
MSEIP) is hosting its third annual summer camp from June 19 - July 14, 2011.  
Please encourage rising seniors, students who will be classified as seniors in 
the 2011-12 school year, to consider applying to take advantage of this 
opportunity to participate in this program. In exceptional cases, students who 
have completed the 10th grade and will be juniors in 2011-2012 may be admitted 
into the program. The uniqueness of the program is based on the continual 
engagement in web based research throughout the academic year with the guidance 
of research mentors.  HU MSEIP will host this program with the goal of 
providing high school students an opportunity to explore the disciplines of 
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

One of the major goals of the HU MSEIP is to provide broad exposure and 
training for high school students in technology, communication, and team work.  
Over the course of the four-week program, students will be engaged in classroom 
lectures, research activities, field experiments, tours of research facilities, 
participate in symposia and seminars that expand their knowledge of current 
technology in science and engineering, and communication skills. Additionally, 
students will receive exposure to the college experience through their stay in 
a university dormitory, interactions with Engineering/Science faculty and 
graduate students, and use of campus computational and academic facilities. 
Students accepted into the program will be required to engage in research 
activities using web-based resources on the completion of the summer program.

Except for the cost of transportation to and from Washington, DC, the 
attendance of the program is free for all admitted students.  As a residential 
program students will be housed on Howard University's campus for the duration 
of the program. A modest monetary award will be given to students who 
demonstrate promise of achieving the goals of HU MSEIP. Please visit 
www.howard.edu/mseip<http://www.howard.edu/mseip> for an application form and 
other information on the HU MSEIP. For additional information about the 
program, please contact Emmanuel Glakpe, Professor of Mechanical Engineering on
