Horizons III

Registration Guidelines and Checklist

The Clarkson University Horizons program's mission is to drive genuine and inclusive culture change for middle and high school students from all backgrounds. Our aim is to provide tools to help our participants excel in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics) and attend college well prepared to pursue employment or advanced degrees and eventually assume leadership roles in STEAM. Therefore, our Horizons Program objectives are to:

Help students realize that the knowledge of STEAM is important to their future
Build self-esteem to perform and apply their skills so that they can envision themselves in STEM-based fields of study and careers
Enhance problem-solving, reasoning, and critical-thinking skills
Build confidence to perform and apply skills through interactive, hands-on, cooperative learning experiences in which participants work together to solve problems
Develop and enhance oral, written, and presentation skills through discussion of global and cultural issues
Promote self-awareness, leadership, and team-building skills

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at horizons@clarkson.edu.

We look forward to receiving your registration.
