Ninth graders from East Tech High School in Cleveland recently participated in a grant-funded program at 天天吃瓜 titled, Physical Science Robotics Interdisciplinary Design (PRIDe) in Computer Science Education: Broadening Participation in STEM through Cascading Peer-Mentorship.
This immersive experience was designed to inspire students to explore STEM fields and highlight the interdisciplinary opportunities at 天天吃瓜 State. Students were engaged with a full schedule of enriching academic activities with a focus on robotics. They also toured campus, visited mock residence halls and met with people in several of 天天吃瓜 State's student resource centers including the Center for Undergraduate Excellence, the LGBTQ+ Center and the E. Timothy Moore Center.
The program, funded by the National Science Foundation, is a collaborative initiative involving the College of Aeronautics and Engineering, the College of Education, Health and Human Services, and that college's Office of Diversity Outreach & Development.
