Engineering Innovation offers several different courses for high school students:
Course Overviews Explore Engineering Innovation (EEI), formerly called Engineering Innovation, is an exciting, college-level, summer program for motivated high school students with an aptitude in math and science and an interest in (or curiosity about) engineering. Students complete hands-on projects in a variety of engineering disciplines (civil, electrical/computer, chemical, materials, and mechanical) and learn to think and problem-solve like engineers. Participating students have the opportunity to earn Johns Hopkins University (JHU) credit. By applying their knowledge of math and science to labs and hands-on projects, the concepts they’ve learned in their high school classrooms are linked to real-world practice. Additionally, their confidence grows as they attend college-level lectures, solve problems, test theories and ultimately learn to think like engineers. Of our Engineering Innovation alumni, more than 80% have gone on to major in engineering or science. Biomedical Engineering Innovation (BMEI) is a fully online course offered year-round that introduces biomedical engineering concepts to high school students. Participants in this course model biological systems and design experiments to test their models and use engineering principles to solve design problems that are biological, physiological, and/or medical. Students will model human efficiency, the arm, and the cardiovascular system. They use the content they learned in high school math, physics, and biology to solve practical problems encountered in biomedical engineering.

Overview Lockheed Martin launched the STEM Scholarship Program in 2018 as part of investment in the next generation of STEM talent. We are committed to providing access to pathways through education and into the STEM workforce for all students, particularly those from diverse backgrounds and communities historically underrepresented in STEM fields.Each year, the STEM Scholarship Program awards $10,000 to 200 recipients studying engineering or computer science at a 4-year college or university. Recipients may renew the scholarship up to three times for a total potential value of $40,000 per student. Eligibility Requirements Applicants to the Lockheed Martin STEM Scholarship Program must meet the following eligibility requirements:
DEADLINE: APRIL 1, 2022, 2pm MST. CSM / SWE Girls Lead the Way ConferenceOur annual Girls Lead the Way conference is a full day of interactive, lab or classroom-based learning designed to introduce high school girls in grades 9-12 to engineering and applied mathematics concepts and the Mines campus. The day begins with a welcome and introduction to the event, followed by major panels where women from Mines speak about their respective majors and answer questions. After the panel, girls are broken into smaller groups according to their interest in majors, and attend their first of three hour-long, interactive activity rotations hosted by Mines faculty and students. We will then give an hour for lunch break. To close out the conference, girls can take an optional campus tour with Mines Ambassadors. The classroom and lab-based interactive sessions are overwhelmingly the most impactful part of the day, and make participants more aware of the wide variety of majors and careers available. Participants report feeling more confident in their abilities to pursue their passions in STEM. Girls Lead the Way prepares participants to:
GDIT’s annual Women + Tech event brings together women at different stages of their careers for an inspiring and engaging event that showcases actionable tools, insights, and networking to support career growth and mobility. New for 2021 is an extension of this program to engage young women in their junior and senior year of high school with a Bot-a-Thon hosted by GDIT with partners Deloitte, UiPath and STEM for Her. Students will learn about Robotics Process Automation (RPA) and use those new RPA skills to solve a problem related to Humanitarianism, Cyber Threats, Social Activism and Mental Health. Certificate of completion will be provided to all students who participate in the program. Teams will be judged on a set of criteria including innovation, creativity, impact, and technical functionality. The members of selected teams will receive scholarships for use with school-related costs. This year's Women + Tech theme is Moving Mountains: In a year of immense challenges – many of which were disproportionately shouldered by women – we recognize the importance of empowerment, resiliency, and elevating others. Without question, women helping other women and allies helping women – sometimes moving proverbial mountains to do so – will ensure even more women can reach the top, together. Join STEM Blazers for an exciting evening of exploration and discovery!
