The EUREKA! program is an intensive, five-year, STEM based program
for rising 8th grade girls that builds their confidence and skills
through hands-on opportunities in science, technology, engineering,
and math (STEM). Utilizing a WHOLE GIRL approach, the program also
incorporates sports and physical fitness, personal development, and
college and career readiness. EUREKA! broadens girls' future
academic and career interests, encourages enrollment in advanced math
and science courses, promotes positive risk-taking, and assists girls
in developing networks of peers and mentors to support their future
endeavors.During EUREKA!, girls gain first-hand knowledge through a
variety of exciting and compelling activities that explore the
cutting-edge world of STEM through experiences in a college campus
environment. With complementary activities in healthy living, social
justice, and financial literacy, EUREKA!'s approach fosters
educational, professional and personal development.
