Middle School Summer Engineering Program

Discover engineering.

Hands-on activities in aerospace, biotechnology, and robotics help future engineers explore the educational paths open to them in high school and beyond.

My NSLC experience was absolutely amazing. I learned a lot about engineering and what it means to be a leader.
