Hi Yecenia,
Please share this summer opportunity with your students!
Summer Pre-College 2021 at UMass Amherst
UMass Amherst Summer Pre-College offers academic intensives for rising high school sophomores, juniors and seniors ranging in length from 1 to 6 weeks. Our programs correspond to a variety of majors here at UMass (and many other universities), and give students an opportunity to explore their academic interests & help them decide what to study in college. It's a great way for high school students to experience college-level coursework first-hand.
Topics range from sport management and business to engineering, animal science, architecture and much more. Please see our program flyer for an overview of courses, dates and fees. You can also visit our website for the full list of program offerings and descriptions.
New for Summer 2021:
- Creative Coding & Data Visualization
- Isenberg Business Ethics Academy
- Equine Science Intensive: Horse Pregnancy & Foaling
- Programming for Aspiring Scientists: Python with Applications to Physics
- Research Intensives in Psychology - Labs include the Deater-Deckard Lab and Mandalaywala Lab
All programs will be fully online and taught by UMass Amherst faculty and graduate students, combining live video instruction, independent project / group work, and check-ins with faculty and TA’s. Each course includes a minimum of 8 hours/week of live instruction plus offline assignments. Students will earn college credits and will be able to request an official UMass transcript.
High school students entering 10th - 12th grades* are eligible to apply, and admissions are rolling through June. Please feel free to email me with questions.
*Pre-Veterinary Medicine and Veterinary Technology are limited to rising 11th & 12th graders.
Best wishes,
