MIT WOMEN'S INITIATIVE PROGRAM (MIT WIP)
The SAMPE Foundation sponsors the MIT Women’s Initiative Program (MIT WIP). Participate at no cost to your school district or SAMPE chapter.
The MIT WIP funds teams of two female MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) students to visit a selected school district over the course of a week in January, to make presentations to a female middle school and high school students about education & careers in science, math & engineering.
A school district in a geographic area must be the applicant to MIT WIP and submit an application to participate in the MIT WIP. Applications are due during September-October and can be found at here.
Interested school districts must submit an application and coordinate the MIT WIP student’s schedule of visits to the district’s middle schools and high schools by arranging visit dates/times, administrative details, and locations for their presentations with recommendations for travel and hotel in the geographic area. A contact person from the local school district is required.
The SAMPE Foundation is pleased to provide this opportunity to your local school district! For additional information and details, contact the SAMPE Foundation at foundation@sampe.org.
