The Lemelson-MIT Program within MIT’s School of Engineering administers the InvenTeams program, in which teams of high-school students, educators, and mentors receive grants of up to $7500 to invent working technological solutions to real-world problems. Each InvenTeam chooses its own problem to solve. Up to eight schools will be awarded grants. Newton has a successful history with InvenTeams. The application process occurs in two stages. Educators and their teams should apply now for the 2022-23 school year, and final applications will be due September 6. For more information, email inventeams@mit.edu. Potential applicants should attend an Information Webinar on July 26 at 7PM.
