My Introduction to Engineering (MITE)
MITE is a five-day summer camp for current high school juniors to discover engineering through participation in an engineering team project, hands-on activities and interactions with engineering students, faculty, staff and alumni.
MITE is open to students with strong interests in engineering, science or math. Fifty students will be selected to attend each session. All students are welcome to apply and must reside in the United States. Those who have overcome socio-economic hardship or have had limited exposure to engineering courses in their high school are strongly encouraged to apply.
While we do not have a confirmed date for program admittance, we aim to finalize decisions by mid-May and will communicate updates as soon as they are available.
Student participants are housed in a campus dorm.
Registration for MITE 2026 opens in spring.
