EXCITE! is designed to
introduce young high school women to science, technology, engineering and
mathematics (STEM) fields. EXCITE! is a year round program that offers
girls in the 9th - 12th grades opportunities on and
off campus.
Girls entering 9th and
10th grades in the fall have the chance to participate in a four-day
hands-on residential science and engineering camp held on the K-State
campus in Manhattan, KS. The EXCITE! workshop allows students to work
closely with K-State faculty and undergraduate students. Participants also
tour companies that employ scientists and engineers and have the
opportunity to see a “typical” day.
During the school year
girls are invited to one day campus events. These events focus on
preparing for college as a STEM student and are led by K-State students.
