New York. This six weeks program is designed for high achievingminority high school and middle school students. The program extends over six weeks periodand its goal is to encourage those students to pursue careers in engineering and science whenthey go to college. The curriculum is designed to be introductory to engineering and science.This is well aligned with the goals of NASA CIPAIR funding that our MechanicalEngineering Dept. has received. Another partner in this project is Louis Stokes for MinorityParticipation in Science and Engineering (LSAMP) who supported the undergraduatestudents for two full academic semesters, spring and fall of 2011, in their effort to design acurriculum in aerospace to be taught in Proyectoaccess summer
