SUMMER OPPORTUNITIES!
JUNIORS: 2019 Engineering Summer Program (ESP) at the University of Wyoming
If you're interested in becoming an engineer or improving the lives of people around the world, apply to participate in hands-on exploration of the diverse fields of engineering. You could build a digital circuit, design a timber truss, examine solutions to pressing environmental issues, or discover materials for use in emerging technologies.
ESP, which takes place June 16-22, is for current high school juniors who will be seniors in the 2019-20 school year. This is a unique opportunity for students to work one-on-one with university faculty and graduate students and to ask questions about their experiences as professionals in the field. Apply today at http://info.uwyo.edu/esp-check
DEADLINE: MARCH 25, 2019
Inbound 10th, 11th, 12th and soon to be graduates: 2019 FBI Teen Academies
The FBI Denver Division invites all high school inbound sophomores, juniors, and seniors (recently graduated included) to apply to attend one of three 2019 FBI Teen Academies which will be held June 12th (Denver), July 13th (Laramie), and August 2nd, 2019 (Colorado Springs), from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Punctuality, professional behavior, and business casual attire will be required of all students attending this program.
Due to the vast diversity of our workforce, any student with an interest in the FBI, what we do, and how a relationship with the FBI can help their school is encouraged to apply. The program is not exclusive to students interested in criminal justice. All students will be evaluated based on their application (school activities and community involvement) and essay to determine which students will be offered a seat in the class. None of the above elements will be the sole basis of evaluation of an application, and the application process should be taken seriously by all applicants.
This application, supporting essay, and release form must be received via e-mail at aemeyer@fbi.gov or at the following address by 5 p.m. on April 15, 2019, for panel review. Incomplete and late applications will not be accepted. Please notate which Teen Academy you are applying for by handwriting your preferred academy in the top right corner of the application: 1) Denver, 2) Laramie, or 3) Colorado Springs.
For an application, see Mrs. Burke ASAP!
