Idaho Junior Engineering, Math and Science (JEMS) Program
www.uidaho.edu/engr/jems      | The
University of Idaho College of Engineering sponsors the annual Idaho
Junior Engineering, Mathematics, and Science (JEMS) Summer Workshop for students
who have completed their junior or senior year of high
school. The focus of the workshop is to expose
students to engineering problems within technical and social contexts, and
to encourage them to enroll in college. JEMS includes
lectures and hands-on activities in Leadership, Engineering Design, Modeling, and
possibly AutoCAD. Students will participate in lab exercises, field trips,
computer exercises, and recreational activities. Up to 60 participants are
accepted to the workshop held the middle two weeks in
July. The 2006 session is July 9-21, 2006.
The application deadline for the 2005 program is May 26,
2006. The criteria for participant selection includes three
years of mathematics (grades B or better), a minimum GPA
of 3.0, a brief résumé, and a one-page essay describing
why the student wishes to attend JEMS and what he
or she wants to gain from this workshop. The tuition
for Idaho JEMS is $550. Scholarship funds are available, including
funds to encourage female and minority students to apply.
Students requesting a scholarship should complete the financial aid portion
of the Idaho JEMS Application. Participants experience the UI Campus—talking
with professors and counselors, learning about college life, and participating
in career planning activities that will help them become aware
of high school course work needed to prepare for an
engineering or computer science career. Idaho JEMS students live
on-campus and are supervised by faculty and dorm counselors.
Upon successful completion of the workshop, students earn two college
credits.
