I just received information for a wonderful opportunity for high school young
women. Legacy International is looking for five US student ambassadors to be
part of the TechGirls 2018 <https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/USTechGirls2018> .
As an ambassador, students will attend an 8-day coding class at Virginia Tech
<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/USTechGirls2018> and participate in
sightseeing and other activities. Room and board is included. The deadline to
apply is 4/13. More information and the application can be found here
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/USTechGirls2018
We are also still accepting applicants for the programs below.
School Year:
PCI (Pre-College Initiative) <http://adancy24.wixsite.com/nsbe/pci>
PCI <http://adancy24.wixsite.com/nsbe/pci> is co-sponsored by Virginia Tech's
National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) <http://adancy24.wixsite.com/nsbe>
and the Center for the Enhancement of Engineering Diversity (CEED)
<http://www.eng.vt.edu/ceed> , with the goal of increasing the number of
African American students who are prepared to enter college, ideally majoring
in engineering, math, science, and other technical disciplines. The program
consists of a series of five daylong events held on Saturdays over the course
of the academic year. Activities include lab tours, demonstrations, hands on
activities and presentations designed to help students prepare for the college
application process. Remaining date for the spring semester is April 14, 2018.
There is a one-time $10 registration fee when students apply. Transportation is
not provided. For more information: http://adancy24.wixsite.com/nsbe/pci
The VT College of Engineering's Open House
<https://eng.vt.edu/admissions/visit/engineering-open-house.html> will be held
on Monday, April 9, 2018. This is a free event. You can find more information

Summer Camps:
Imagination <https://www.eng.vt.edu/imagination> , a one-week science and math
camp for rising seventh and eighth graders, introduces participants to the
exciting and fun world of technology, engineering, and science ... not by
watching, but by doing! The camp will be held July 23 - 27. Free bus
transportation is provided to and from Roanoke. Cost is $150, but scholarships
are available. While this is a day camp, we have students who stay with friends
and family, rent/share hotel rooms or Airbnb, stay in RV's and even camp! The

C-Tech2 (Computers and Technology at Virginia Tech)
<http://www.eng.vt.edu/ctech2> is a two week residential program held June 24
- July 7, 2018. <http://www.eng.vt.edu/ctech2> C-Tech2 is designed to develop
and sustain the interests of women in engineering. Students spend the majority
of their time involved in hands-on activities designed to increase their
interest in and knowledge of applications of engineering to real world
situations. The target population for the program is rising junior and senior
high school girls. The deadline for application is March 26, 2018. Full and
partial scholarships are available based on financial need. Potential
applicants should not allow program costs to affect their decision to apply.
