The Launching 2 Learn (L2L) project is a four-week hands-on experience that teaches the science and math behind high power rockets (HPR). The central goal of the project is to contribute to retention efforts for the underserved and underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The project aims to increase STEM-literacy, raise confidence in technical abilities, and encourage students to continue with their pursuits of higher education in STEM fields. The experience will take place in summer 2015 at the NASA Kennedy Space Center, from July 6th through July 31st. The application deadline is April 20, 2015. The L2L project is designed for undergraduate freshman and sophomores majoring in STEM and related fields. Students with disabilities, ethnic minorities, and females are encouraged to apply.
