A Young Women’s Summer Institute (YWSI), a residential program for sixth-and seventh-grade girls, sponsored by the Ohio Supercomputer Center, will be held on campus, July 16-22. The theme of Wittenberg’s program is computational science, and Wittenberg faculty members will teach the classes.
Designed to promote computer, math and science skills, the hands-on, weeklong program also aims to assist girls in developing an interest in these subjects by allowing them to use the latest computer technology to work on a practical and interesting scientific problem. The program will also introduce participants to a variety of job and career opportunities.
