Key Program Requirements

Flexibility

Phase lengths are flexible. There is no set timetable for project completion, so we encourage students, with the help of their mentors, to mold a timeline suitable to their projects.

Comprehensiveness

During the hatchery process, students will be involved with project planning (e.g. timeline, goal setting, budget planning, etc.), report writing, and multiple presentations.

Funding

Students can receive up to $5,000 in funding for projects with teams of three or more, or up to $3,000 for projects with teams of two or fewer. Funding may also depend on the project scope.
