The Program
The CCBC STEM Academy is for high school students in grades 11 and 12, at participating high schools, who are interested in a career in the Engineering, Computer Science and Cybersecurity fields. Students have opportunities to explore careers in these fields and receive hands-on STEM instruction from college faculty members in labs and classroom environments while acquiring critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Additionally, students who devote two years of study to the program will have the opportunity to graduate from high school with up to 28 college credits toward CCBC’s associate degree program or transfer the credits to other colleges and universities.
