Clemson
University’s The WISE Experience program
is a one-week camp held in July for incoming freshman women
majoring in general
engineering, math or science.
Live on campus and experience a college atmosphere complete
with dining halls and classes. The counselors are Clemson
undergraduate women majoring in science, mathematics
or engineering. They’ll
live with you to assist during the program and oversee activities
in the residence halls.
You’ll
find a variety of engineering, math and science classes:
Engineering — learn
about the many engineering majors at Clemson
Math — prepare
for your first college math course with this introductory
class
Science — participate in complex science
experiments
You’ll
also learn about the many undergraduate research opportunities
at Clemson through the University’s Center
for Advanced Engineering Fibers and Films,
one of the program sponsors.
Enjoy
a wide choice of recreational opportunities when you’re not in classes. Go bowling on campus,
play pool, shop or just watch movies in the lounge.
Campers also
have the option to participate in scavenger hunts and
board games.
Come to Clemson for a week this summer, and get
a glimpse of what your freshman year will be like. Meet other
women in your major. Take classes in engineering,
science or math. You can do it through The WISE Experience.
If
you would like to attend The WISE Experience this
summer, give us a call and we'll send you an application. The
camp this year will take place July 12-17, 2009.
The
cost is $300, which includes your room, meals, class supplies
