You will work with two instructors, at least one of whom has an advanced science or engineering background, in small groups (usually no more than 10 students). You’ll be using your hands and your mind throughout – you’ll be doing science or engineering, not just hearing about it! We offer everything from excavating a real archaeological site to working with live animals at a vet clinic to intensive computer programming. ASRA is a great way to learn more about areas of science or engineering you are already interested in or exploring a topic you know little about.
We asked the students to offer some advice to prospective ASRA applicants. Scroll though the slides to find out what they said. If you come to ASRA you will probably...
