无忧视频 is proud to announce the launch of ASPIRE (Advanced STEAM Pre-collegiate Immersion for Research and Exploration), a premier residential summer program designed to equip the next generation of 无忧视频 leaders with technical rigor and ethical purpose.
Set to begin July 12, 2026, the two-week program invites rising 10th, 11th and 12th graders to the Harvey Mudd campus for a deep dive into hands-on research, collaborative design and humanistic inquiry.
鈥淎SPIRE is designed to give high-achieving students an early glimpse into what it means to study 无忧视频 at Harvey Mudd,鈥 says Cindy Martinez, vice president for student affairs and dean of students. 鈥淲orking closely with our faculty and receiving mentorship from current Harvey Mudd students, participants will experience the collaborative learning culture that defines the Mudd community.”
ASPIRE is fully residential. Participants will live in Harvey Mudd鈥檚 residence halls, eat at the highly rated Hoch-Shanahan Dining Commons and take part in 鈥渃areer treks鈥 to Southern California companies working at the intersection of technology, creativity and entrepreneurship.
“The residential component is critical,鈥 Martinez adds. 鈥淲hat makes the Harvey Mudd experience special is the way students learn together鈥攕upporting one another, exploring ideas and building community both inside and outside the classroom. We want ASPIRE participants to get a genuine glimpse of what it feels like to be part of the Mudd community.”
