Sophomore Year
This level takes the skills learned in 9th grade and applies them to what STEM communities really do. The first semester is focused on experimental science while the second semester is focused engineering. Students get a chance to see and feel what it is like to work in these kinds of environments. Students work primarily in groups on longer term projects.
Junior Year
This level takes advantage of a lot of self discovery that has occured in the first two years of the program. Students are expected to to find a 20 hour "job shadow" that allows them to better understand all aspects of that profession. It also includes projects and guest speakers who help them navigate college choices.
Senior Year
This final level uses each level of the program to prepare them for a 40 hour job internship of their choosing. It also helps them refine their college search for the appropriate program that they have identified as the best pathway to their professional goals.
