In 2020, we originally planned to offer 12 courses for high school students and 3 courses for middle school students.

These courses are RACECAR, Medlytics - Data Science for Health and Medicine, Embedded Security, Build a CubeSat, Serious Game Design and Development using AI, Autonomous Cognitive Assistant and Remote Sensing.

Message from MIT Beaver Works
MIT Beaver Works is running 3 Fall Programs for Girls, Apply by 10/7
We wanted to share this exciting opportunity with you and hope you can spread the word. Beaver Works will be running 3 different virtual courses for 8 weeks and we are looking for students. A student will only be able to attend one of the programs.
Students must be able to attend all sessions (all sessions are on Saturdays starting 10/17). We are sharing far and wide as you may have a friend, relative or know a teacher in the area that will have students that are interested in the program.
We are looking for girls who are rising seniors but if there are spots left we will accept girls in other grades. These students should be interested in learning about robotics, cyber security and programming. The program is completely free! No prior experience is necessary.
Go to https://beaverworks.ll.mit.edu/CMS/bw/bwsi for more information. The link to sign up for the program is https://mit-bwsi.formstack.com/forms/bwsi_fall_2020
Columbia Tides
Tides is a 5-week Columbia University Educational Outreach program, running Sundays 12 PM - 3 PM EDT from Oct. 4 through November 1st. This is a great opportunity to take a long form version of classes usually taught at Splash. We’re excited to be holding a virtual version of Tides that we hope will provide a fulfilling educational experience in an uncertain time.
This will be a free event open to grades 9-12. All you need is access to zoom (and a computer for some classes)
