“I learned about a variety of STEM advances in biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, and many more. The lectures gave us the opportunity to understand what topics the professors and students at Yale were researching, and the seminars allowed us to take a wide variety of interesting classes. My favorite lectures were ones given by Professor Brian Scassellati on social robots and their potential for the future and Professor Sandy Chang on telomeres and cancer.”

 I have recently started a club at my school called “Tech Connections” where we invite people from different professions related to tech to talk to students about education, careers, and tips on how to get internships and jobs. I was motivated to start this club because I wanted to become more knowledgable about working in technology.
