Registration is open for You GO Girl!, the MIT Edgerton Center’s summer introduction to science and engineering for girls in the Greater Boston area who will be entering Grade 9.  Students may attend either July 18-21 or August 1-4, 8:30AM-2:30PM each day. A suggested donation of $100 for materials is requested. Apply by April 28. For more information, contact Amy Fitzgerald at 617-253-7931 or amyfitz@mit.edu.

IQ Learning will offer two one-week summer camps this summer:

• Northborough: STEAM: Building Sculptures, August 7-11, at Trinity Church in Northborough, for students entering Grades 3-6. Students will weave math and science into art by grappling, creating, observing, and applying their understanding to designing artistic challenges through hands-on experiences. 
• Brookline: STEM Mysteries: Breaking the Code, August 21-25, at United Parish in Brookline’s Coolidge Corner, for students entering Grades 4-7. Students will explore optical illusions, time travel, and breaking codes with the end goal of creating the camp’s own escape room.

IQ Learning and its summer STEM camp were started in Brookline last year by two certified, experienced, Harvard-trained teachers and math specialists, Cristina and Shephali, who met while working together in the Watertown Public Schools.

The aim of their STEM camps is to have kids engage in long-term STEM projects inspired by exciting themes and enable students to make connections to STEM concepts that they experience on interactive field-trips. For more information, email iqlearning314@gmail.com.

This year, Boston University Learning Resource Network (LERNet) will offer three in-person summer programs for young women living and attending school in Massachusetts.

AI4All is a three-week summer program focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI). It’s open to young women (and those who identify as such) currently in Grades 10-11 and living and attending school in Massachusetts. Participants explore topics such as robotics, computer vision, and natural language processing through team projects, industry field trips, and presentations from guest speakers. The program concludes with a small group research project and a presentation for friends and family. It runs July 24-August 11, Mondays-Fridays, 9:30AM-3:30PM. Apply by May 1.

The Artemis Project is a five-week summer program focused on computer science and led by BU undergraduates majoring in Computer Science or Engineering. It’s open to young women (and those who identify as such) currently in Grade 8 living and attending school in Massachusetts. Priority is given to students who live within 15 miles of Boston. Participants learn computer languages such as Scratch, AppInventor, HTML, CSS, and Python. They also are introduced to cryptography, artificial intelligence, robotics, and circuits. In addition, they learn how computer science is applied in the real world by hearing from guest speakers and visiting local industries. It runs July 10-August 11, Mondays-Fridays, 9:30AM-3:30PM. Apply by May 1.

GROW (Greater Boston Research Opportunities for Young Women) offers young women currently in Grade 11 the opportunity to perform research in a lab at Boston University for six weeks. Applicants must be 16 years old by July 1, live in Massachusetts, and attend school within 30 miles of Boston. Participants will have the opportunity to participate in cutting edge research in a collaborative setting. They will learn best research practices, hear from guest speakers, and develop communication skills by presenting their research at a culminating symposium. Participants who complete all program requirements will receive a stipend of $1500. Orientation is June 28-29, and the program runs July 5-August 11, Mondays-Fridays, 9:30AM-4:30PM. Apply by April 15.
