Registration is underway for the academic enrichment program Science: It's A Girl Thing (SIGT). This Texas Tech residential summer camp is scheduled for June 18-21 for girls entering grades 5 - 6 and July 23-26 for girls entering grades 7 - 11.
The SIGT program addresses the shortage and need for women in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and introduces underserved girls to a university experience. The girls live on campus for four days and receive a first-class introduction to these fields of study as well as the careers that are possible. The faculty is comprised of public school educators as well as Texas Tech University faculty and graduate students.
IDEAL, a department in the Division of Institutional Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement is a non-profit organization. Formed in 1984, the institute has introduced thousands of students in grades K-11 to the univesrity through a variety of on-campus academic enrichment programs.
