Re: Summer Programs





Dear Nancy,



Greetings from WPI!



It's the time of year when students are searching for something new and
exciting to do over their summer break.  *Do you know some students who
would love to spend their summer solving a challenging robotics problem?*
Well, WPI just may have the perfect solution:  *WPI Frontiers and WPI
Launch!*



*WPI Frontiers* is a two-week, residential program (July 8-20, 2007) for
soon-to-be juniors and seniors.  WPI Frontiers blends academic coursework in
topics such as *robotics*, physics, engineering, computer science and
biology, with diverse social activities, communication workshops,
team-building exercises and field trips.  Participants choose a "major" and
get an on-campus research and learning experience working with WPI faculty
and using state-of-the-art labs and equipment.  This is a great way for
pre-college students to test their interest in the areas of engineering,
science and technology and to get a closer look at what college life is
about!  *The application deadline is May 31st (postmarked).*  Tuition is
$2100, however students involved in FIRST who wish to "major" in Robotics at
Frontiers can apply for one of two $500 scholarships (please see the bottom
of this email for details). For additional information and an application,
please check out the WPI Frontiers Web site at www.wpi.edu/+frontiers.  Should
you have any questions about this program or about WPI, please feel free to
contact us at frontiers@xxxxxxxx



*WPI* *Launch* is a new summer program for soon-to-be freshmen and sophomore
high school students! WPI Launch is a week-long (non-residential) program
(July 30 – August 3, 2007) of day-time (9:00 – 4:30) sessions for students
interested in biology, computer science, or *robotics*. (Participants select
one of the three.) They'll learn from outstanding WPI instructors and
students and use state-of-the-art experimental, analytical, and computer
technology on the WPI campus. Tuition is $495. Please register by June 30th.
To learn more about the WPI Launch program, please visit our website at
www.wpi.edu/+launch, or email us at launch@xxxxxxxx



We hope to see your students on campus this summer!



Sincerely,



Julie Chapman                                                   Karen Goudey
