Description:
Barnard's Pre-college academic programs in NYC are for young women who are intellectually prepared for college-level work and will be entering 10th, 11th or 12th grade in Fall 2019. This year we will be offering six different programs:
Athena Summer Innovation Institute, 2 weeks, will prep young women with a range of skills necessary to build successful endeavors. Workshops range from creating a brand to creating a business plan.
Young Women's Leadership Institute, 2 weeks, Students attend on-campus Women's Studies courses and workshops and explore female-driven businesses and organizations as they understand the complex relationship between gender and leadership in this dynamic and interactive program. Due to the popular demand of this program YWLI will be offered in both session I and II.
The Summer STEM Seminars, 2 weeks, (S-Cubed) will study the sciences both in and out of classroom [with acclaimed Barnard professors] in fields ranging from environmental studies, economics, and mathematics, neuroscience and science history
Summer in the City (SITC) program: Participants have the option to study on campus for 1 week or 4- weeks. Participants in the 1- week program focus on a single subject while our 4- week program participants take two courses during their time on campus. Courses are offered in diverse subjects including Theatre, Psychology, Literature, Urban Studies, Web Development/Coding, Environmental Science Political Science, Architecture, Religion, Art History and more! All of our SITC program participants also participate in our Beyond the Gates series which highlights the professional industries in NYC as well as the city’s museums and exhibitions.
Dance in the City, 2 weeks Students will engage in academic dance courses at Barnard, perfect their technique at the Alvin Ailey Extension School, and attend professional dance performances all over NYC.
Each program offers a unique opportunity to explore New York City both in and out of the classroom while you live and learn like a college student, build leadership skills, and explore career opportunities. Your studies may include visiting an art gallery, attending a poetry slam, or meeting city leaders. Evenings and weekends are filled with organized trips to cultural attractions and landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty and Rockefeller Center. You may want to catch a film at an outdoor festival, hang out in Central Park, or escape to Jones Beach for a day. In short, you’ll get an unforgettable taste of the college experience while living in one of the most exciting cities in the world.
