Students gain hands-on engineering experience, earn college credit, and develop critical social-emotional skills while immersing themselves in university life.
The NYLF Envision Summer Engineering Program is a pre-college program for high school students (grades 9-12) designed to provide hands-on experience and insights into various engineering fields. Participants engage in real-world challenges, utilizing CAD software and design thinking to develop innovative solutions, often addressing UN Sustainable Development Goals. The curriculum includes designing and 3D printing model rockets, programming microcontrollers for autonomous drones, and building electrical circuits. Students gain practical skills in areas like mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, AI, and robotics through morning design labs and afternoon programming sessions. The program also focuses on developing critical social-emotional skills such as self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. Students experience university life by staying in dorms and exploring the campus, and they have the opportunity to earn 1-2 college credits through George Mason University upon successful completion.
A typical day involves morning design labs focused on creating 3D model rockets and building electric circuits, followed by afternoon programming sessions with model drones and exploring AI neural networks.
This program is ideal for high school students who are curious about STEM or already passionate about engineering, seeking hands-on experience, leadership development, and a taste of college life.
