MIT THINK Scholars Program — Applications Due Jan. 1

Opportunities

MIT’s THINK Scholars Program is run by MIT undergraduates to provide support and funding for STEM projects developed by high school students and completed within one semester.  Selected projects will receive:

  • Up to $2000 in funding for materials and equipment
  • Mentorship by an MIT student or professor
  • Networking with industry professionals and academic leaders
  • Experience in conducting a project from start to finish.

Application proposals following the guidelines are due January 1. They should present an insightful idea, clear goals, and a plan for implementation.  Topics for projects may be far-ranging within STEM fields, as demonstrated by previous winners.  Award decisions will be announced on January 9, and projects are expected to be completed by May 31.
