Expand STEM Skills with Yale Young Global Scholars
The Yale Young Global Scholars (YYGS) Program is a summer academic enrichment and leadership program that brings together students from all over the world for two-week sessions on Yale's campus in New Haven or the Yale Center Beijing in China. In all YYGS sessions, students attend lectures by Yale faculty, as well as smaller seminars taught by Yale undergraduates and graduate students. Students also work in capstone project groups to identify a global problem facing the world today, conduct rigorous background research, and propose impactful solutions to their peers and instructors. Need-based financial aid is available and YYGS encourages students from all backgrounds to apply. Apply by February 6, 2019.
