Future Ready Scholars at the University of Michigan is a STEM-focused, college and career preparation program for high school students in Southeast Michigan. Participants spend two weeks in an immersive summer camp on the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor campus, developing their academic skills, exploring potential college and career pathways, and preparing for post-secondary success.
With guidance from instructors and college students, scholars learn about various STEM disciplines and tools (such as robotics, app development, computer-aided design, & entrepreneurship), and work together in collaborative teams to design and prototype brighter, healthier, and more just futures. Additionally, students participate in college and career readiness sessions covering SAT prep, college planning, networking, and financial literacy.
Learning opportunities continue during the school year through monthly Saturday Sessions at the Michigan Engineering Zone, providing ongoing opportunities for community engagement, professional development, and academic support.
This program is free to students and families.
