BridgeUP STEM at Georgia Tech provides opportunities for low-income or first-generation high school students from the Atlanta area to enhance their computing coding skills and explore different aspects of computing research from Georgia Tech faculty, graduate students, and Georgia Tech undergraduate computing majors.

The year-long program exposes aspiring high school and undergraduate computing researchers to experiences, inspiration, and opportunities afforded by the program’s location in an elite research university. The students start with a four-week summer coding program and then take a course throughout the year that focuses on real-world computing problems.

BridgeUP STEM is a collaboration between the Georgia Tech College of Computing and NCWIT, funded by a grant from the Helen Gurley Brown Foundation.
