In addition, they are expected to participate in their choice of one laboratory course in either biology, chemistry, physics, or computer science, and to engage in team research projects in one of the above five major discipline areas. The students also have the opportunity to take elective courses which may vary from year to year, to participate in several field trips, and to be further enriched by a distinguished guest lecture series.
This olympiad is a contest in which high-school students solve linguistic puzzles. In solving the problems, students learn about the diversity and consistency of language, while exercising logic skills.
No prior knowledge of linguistics or second languages is necessary. Professionals in linguistics, computational linguistics and language technologies use dozens of languages to create engaging problems that represent cutting edge issues in their fields.
The competition has attracted top students to study and work in those same fields. It is truly an opportunity for young people to experience a taste of natural-language processing in the 21st century.
To have a teaching tool for this work, she is working with research scientists at Cepstral, LLD to adapt vocal synthesis software. The My True Voice Project combines the teaching of pronunciation with an exploration of poetry and the use of voice synthesis software. This program offers high school students enrichment experience in science and math careers. PROGRESS takes a fresh approach to address the need for gender equity in society by teaching middle school aged girls years old how to negotiate.
PROGRESS has three core objectives: develop local and national tools to teach women and girls how to harness the power of negotiation, form networks between nonprofit organizations to efficiently disseminate information about issues impacting women, and explore obstacles to and potential solutions for the advancement of women.
The tendency for women to negotiate less than men is a current and persisting problem, even among young college-aged women and those in business schools today.
Unless society makes changes to the way we socialize our children and change our attitudes to allow women to be more direct in asking for what they want, this problem will continue to have an adverse impact on women for decades to come. Targeted programs that seek to educate women and girls about this issue and teach them to negotiate effectively can have a very tangible impact on their well-being.
Furthermore, raising awareness of a critical gender biases that create long term inequities can be instrumental in societal change. Project Ignite is a student-run outreach organization at Carnegie Mellon University offering an interdisciplinary project-based educational program for high school students in the greater Pittsburgh area.
Ignite provides a valuable opportunity for students to work in a team and gain hands-on experience planning and executing a project with funding for materials provided to each group.
The vision is that all students, regardless of socioeconomic standing or prior academic achievement, will have the opportunity to participate in the program. High school students meet with their project advisors for a weekly 3 hour workshop over a 10 week period during the spring semester. The majority of project work is done during these workshops, though students continue to work on the project throughout the week. At the end of the 10 week program, the high school students present their projects to friends, family, and the Carnegie Mellon and Pittsburgh communities in a project showcase.

To provide a pleasant, authentic experience in assisted reading, the Reading Tutor lets the child choose from a menu of high-interest stories from Weekly Reader and other sources including user-authored stories. The Reading Tutor adapts Carnegie Mellon's Sphinx-II speech recognizer to analyze the student's oral reading and intervenes when the reader makes mistakes, gets stuck, clicks for help, or is likely to encounter difficulty.
The Reading Tutor responds with assistance modeled in part after expert reading teachers, but adapted to the capabilities and limitations of the technology. They fulfill their mission by developing research-based solutions that are classroom-tested and foreground CS-STEM concepts.
CMRA offers programs that include teacher training, curriculum, virtual tools, and certifications for both K Robotics Education and Workforce Development.

Lab address: Newell-Simon Hall x SPARK Saturdays is a Saturday workshop series created by volunteers studying Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University that aims to introduce beginners to concepts about electrical and computer engineering and expose them to engineering as a potential career choice.
SUCCEED is a 5-day program for rising 10th graders that is designed to complement what students have studied in school and provide you with opportunities to expand your understanding of energy, the environment, and how those relate to climate change. At the end of the program, the student will be able to answer a variety of question related to these topics, such as: What is climate change?
What is the role of engineering to solve the climate change challenge? What careers could you have in climate, energy, or the environment? The program includes a variety of experiments, field trips and activities organized by PhD students from Carnegie Mellon University. It is one of our largest outreach events and collaborates with CMU professors and students from various campus organizations.
The girls are able to participate in activities related to electrical, mechanical, civil, biomedical, material science, and chemical engineering. Brian M.
