ARC–Oak Ridge National Laboratory 2017 Summer Math-Science-Technology Institute and Summer Science Academy


ARC and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, held two hands-on STEM learning programs for Appalachian students and teachers in July 2017: A high school math-science-technology institute, which is a two-week residential program for students and teachers; and a middle school science academy, which is a one-week residential program just for students. Both programs are all expenses paid and offer the opportunity to work with world-class scientists doing real science!

Watch ORNL's 2016 video to learn about all the programs offer for students and teachers:

Those interested in applying for either program's summer 2018 session should contact their state's ARC program manager in December 2017 or January 2018.
