Mission Statement

The High School Science Club, located in Houston Texas, has as its primary goal fostering an appreciation for science and technology among young students, along with a reflection on science responsibility to promote social justice by respecting ethical values. The club aims at reaching young students in the Houston area to promote a reflection on the ethical boundaries of science and technology.

Information for Summer Camp 2011

The call for applications to the summer camp for the year 2012 is now open. Students demonstrating a level of high proficiency in school will be assigned to a research project under the supervision of an active scientist. Researchers and local teachers will act as mentors as the student explores, discovers, and proposes various research directions. The goal of the camp is to open a communication line between talented young students and the scientific community, by working hand-on-hand in real state-of-the-art scientific projects. Camps will last for 6 weeks. During this time, students will work to solve the intellectual challenge posed by the researcher assigned to their team. Each week there will be session where all the participants on the project gather together. At the end of the six weeks we will have a poster session where each team will show the results obtained from their work. We will award the three best projects with an honorific diploma.

We will soon announce the exact dates for the summer program.
