Program Highlights:
The Collegiate Science and Technology Entry Program [CSTEP] at Barnard College provides services that are designed to increase recruitment, retention and placement of eligible students in CSTEP-targeted fields and the licensed professions. The program targets the historically under-represented (African American, Latino, Native American and Alaskan Natives) or the financially disadvantaged Barnard student who intends to pursue or shows ability in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math [STEM] fields, health-related fields and/or the licensed professions of New York [ which includes education - math & science, law, and social work]
Barnard College CSTEP’s summer program is designed to expose select incoming first-year students (5) to a preview of key gateway mathematics and science courses in preparation for their pursuit of majors in the area of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) or the licensed professions of New York State. The summer program brings together talented faculty and promising students for an exciting five week program of coursework, scientific inquiry, field trips, interaction with CSTEP alumni and career professionals. The faculty members design a curriculum emphasizing the sciences, group projects, and other activities to nurture the students’ academic interests. As a CSTEP summer student you will have the opportunity to get insight into the rigorous curriculum in math, science, and writing that awaits you as you prepare to pursue your college and career goals. Student participants for the CSTEP Summer Program are invited, by invitation only, to join after the Barnard College admission decision has been made.
