So I found this program like last year and I was wondering if anyone knew anything about it…? It’s a younger division of the New York Academy of Sciences where students apply to be assigned a mentor in some form of stem, you are grouped into teams and teams work develop solutions to specific problems with sponsoring from companies such as PepsiCo, you basically do a bunch of real life research and probably the chance to get your team’s project judged as the winning invention!! This is the link: thejunioracademy.org . The deadline is June 30th so if anyone’s interested they’ve been accepting students on a rolling basis since like the end of April-ish. You’ll be notified if you are accepted within 6-8 weeks.
