Middle School Summer Science Mentoring Program
July 10-25, 2003

The WISE Middle School summer program began as a National Science Foundation and BOCES supported initiative four years ago and continues through the efforts of the WISE program at SUNY Stony Brook. The program mission continues to focus on increasing and sustaining the interest of young women in science, math, engineering, and technology through the leadership of SUNY mentors.

Forty students will be paired with ten SUNY undergraduate and graduate students who will serve as mentors and lead group activities for the 2003 summer program.

WISE offers young women the opportunity to experience a small, closely knit, academic community that helps them become more independent and self-reliant, while engaging in hands-on, scientific studies.

The cost of the program is $650 (includes daily lunch and all lab fees). Deadline for applications is May 30, 2003; we will accept a maximum of 40 students. Students should currently be enrolled in 5th to 9th grade.

Transportation to and from the university each day must be arranged by the student's parent or guardian. The program runs rain or shine beginning at 9 AM and ending at 3 PM.

The State University of New York is an affirmative action/equal opportunity educator and employer.

Please complete an application (see below to download application) and return along with a check for $650 by May 30, 2003 to:
