During the Summit STEM Fellowship (SSF), students engage in live programming and gain access to a wide range of resources designed to support their academic and personal growth. The core program features the following series: Fireside Chats, STEM Shorts, Skill Builders, and Career Panels. Together, these sessions introduce students to diverse fields, build essential life skills, and provide practical tools for success in high school and beyond. All programming is intentionally designed to be highly actionable, allowing students to immediately apply what they learn.
The fellowship is a flexible three-week commitment and can be completed alongside other summer programs. All events are held in the evenings or on weekends, and students are expected to commit 10-15 hours to the program each week. In Summer 2026, the Summit STEM Fellowship will host two sessions:
