Each week of the programme covers projects related to computer science, such as art, storytelling, robotics, video games, web sites, and apps. You’ll also hear from guest speakers, participate in workshops, connect with female engineers and entrepreneurs, and go on field trips. The programme culminates in a final project where you build your own product and share it with your class.
Early acceptance (Round One) application deadline is February 16, 2018, and the final (Round Two) deadline is March 16, 2018.
