MSU SUSTAIN WINTER STEM SATURDAY ACADEMY 2025

MSU SUSTAIN (Supporting Strategic Training of Adaptable and Integrated Nuclear Workforce) WINTER STEM SATURDAY ACADEMY 2025 is a rigorous academic enrichment program designed to foster excitement among students in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics with a focus on Nuclear Power.

As we engage your students in the fascinating world of nuclear science with standards-aligned resources that connect them to applications of nuclear processes, students will explore the science behind creating energy with fission and fusion, learn how to measure and use radiation--something they can't even see and apply what they learn to address real-world challenges.

Our in person Saturday academy includes a series of weekly hands-on activities. Students will engage in a variety of "hands-on, minds-on" STEM activities that are aligned to the National Math, Science, and Technology standards and learn about different NEUP careers in STEM as they delve into each grade level project.

Students will enjoy:

• Structured sessions

• Project Based Activities

• Hands On Activities

• Rigorous Enhanced Curriculum

• A balanced schedule including live instruction, peer collaboration and self-paced project development per day

To participate in the program each student will need to report to Morgan State University Campus for 5 consecutive Saturdays from FEBRUARY 22, 2025 to MARCH 22, 2025.

The in person sessions will start on Saturday, FEBRUARY 22, 2025 and run every Saturday for 5 consecutive weeks. Classes start at 9:00 a.m. and students will participate in 3 hours interactive instruction with the teacher followed by independent activities by the student. The session ends promptly at 12:00 pm.

Tuition cost for the WINTER ACADEMY is FREE after the $20.00 PER CHILD NON_REFUNDABLE REGISTRATION FEE is paid. Students MUST be in GRADE 3 to GRADE 10 ONLY to be admitted to the program.

Students may ONLY register for one grade level. If your child's grade is not available for the session you want that means that class is full and we will not be accepting any more students in that class. Please select the grade he/she is currently in for the 2024-25 School Year. (For example, I have a child in 6th grade , I will select 6 grade). Each child must be registered on a separate form.
