The program offers a unique blend of hands-on rocket building and launching with inspiring field trips to major STEM centers and interaction with women aerospace engineers.
The Summer Rocketry Program by Science Club for Girls is a two-week, hands-on experience for rising 6th-8th grade girls and gender-expansive youth. Participants design, build, and launch their own water bottle and engine-powered rockets, applying physics and engineering concepts. The program includes field trips to STEM centers like the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, the Christa McAuliffe Center at Framingham State University, or the Museum of Science, where they can simulate space missions and see real space hardware. A career panel featuring diverse women in aerospace engineering provides inspiration and insights into STEM careers. The program aims to cultivate leadership skills, build confidence in STEM, and encourage participants to see themselves in scientific and engineering fields.
No day is the same, but participants engage in hands-on activities, learn physics and engineering concepts in the classroom, and go on field trips to STEM centers to see real-world applications of their learning.
This program is ideal for rising 6th-8th grade girls and gender-expansive youth interested in exploring aerospace engineering, building rockets, and gaining confidence in STEM.
