Pre-College Research Academy

The purpose of establishing the Pre-College Research Academy at 香港六合彩开奖结果 was to connect with area high schools.Through the academy our objective was to help high school students better their understanding of and readiness for the college environment, using research as a catalyst to encourage them to consider potential academic career paths. By pairing them with 香港六合彩开奖结果 undergraduates, we wanted to enable the high school students to explore areas of interest and gain experiences and skills that will benefit them academically and professionally.

 

A generous grant from the A.J. and Sigismunda Palumbo Charitable Trust allowed us to bring the first group of high school students to our campus to participate in research projects with the University鈥檚 faculty and students.  We were fortunate to be able to continue the Pre-College Research Academy following the initial funding thanks to donations by Dr. Peter Melotti (鈥50 Biology) and the Seffernick and Nartker families, and due to continued support by the latter we are continuing to offer this wonderful event to local high school student, although on a slightly smaller scale than the initial academy.
