The Pre-College Program in Computational Biology immerses students in cutting-edge laboratory techniques and the computational methods that bring biological data to life. Computer science has transformed biology and medicine, and the next generation of life scientists must be fluent in both generating data in the lab and interpreting it with powerful computational tools. Our program gives high school students a rare chance to explore this interdisciplinary frontier in a university setting. Students tackle real research-inspired problems, from studying microbes in Pittsburgh’s local ecosystems to investigating the impact of COVID-19. After collecting samples in the field, they will isolate bacterial DNA, fragment it into millions of sequences, and analyze these sequences using the same approaches used by computational biologists worldwide. Each day highlights the synergy between experimentation and computation. Half the day is spent in a hackathon, with students working in teams to code solutions to computational questions inspired by biology. The other half takes place in the lab, where students generate the very datasets they’ll later interpret with their own code. Carnegie Mellon University, a global leader in automated science, gives students the chance to work with robotic laboratory equipment. Using tools like the Opentrons OT-2 liquid handling robot and custom automation platforms, our students will see firsthand how machine learning and artificial intelligence are reshaping how science is done. To prepare for the program, admitted students will complete foundational coding lessons from Programming for Lovers, an open education project developed by Professor Phillip Compeau. These preparatory materials ensure that every student arrives ready to dive into computational biology, regardless of prior programming experience.

Pre-College Music mirrors the first weeks of Carnegie Mellon’s first-year undergraduate School of Music curriculum. It is designed to prepare students for college-level auditions and the life of a music major. Students build skills and confidence through private studio lessons, major performing ensembles, and music support courses. Admission to each course is based on a demonstrated performance level, which can be shown through an audition recording or a submitted portfolio. Regardless of a student’s skill level, there is a place for them to learn and grow in this program. Our residential 6-week program stands out as the most comprehensive and enriching option, yielding the most significant results. This immersive experience allows students to explore the full breadth of our curriculum, advancing to more advanced repertoires both in solo work and ensemble performances. We recognize, however, that this level of commitment may not be feasible for everyone. To accommodate varied schedules and needs, we offer alternative programs that provide a solid foundation for musical growth. The depth of your Pre-College Music experience and the extent of your development will correlate directly with the program you choose.

C-Tech² offers an opportunity to learn about college life--from residence halls to classrooms and everything in-between. It provides access to information and technology necessary to best prepare you for your future. The program is open to rising high school juniors and seniors. Participants will take part in a biomedical engineering themed design project, but will also be exposed to the broad range of engineering disciplines through additional hands on activities. There will be opportunities to connect with faculty and information and resources regarding college preparation will be provided.

The University Partnership for Workforce Advancement and Research & Development in Semiconductors (UPWARDS), will focus on the microelectronics industry, cleanroom fabrication and career opportunities. Participants should be interested in pursuing electrical, computer, materials science or chemical engineering or a related field. UPWARDS is funded in part by the National Science Foundation, Micron Technology, Inc., and Tokyo Electron Ltd.

Our world generates and captures a huge amount of data. Computer scientists and statisticians help us understand what the data means so we can make good decisions about the future. In this weeklong camp, campers will learn best AI practices while playing team games. Campers will also work in small teams to collect, analyze and use data to solve problems of interest to them, e.g., public health, the environment, or the worth attending elite versus regular types of colleges. Campers will present their findings at an end-of-camp showcase--family is welcome! This camp is for students who want to explore data science! No previous programming or statistical background is needed. Campers should have completed Algebra I and one other math class.

IHSC camp is a fun-filled week of constant activity, including swim lessons/instruction, water safety, sports, arts/crafts, and learning games. Main goals of camp are to be safe and have fun! All camp swim instructors are American Red Cross lifeguards and CPR certified. Open to non-members. Designed for AGES 5-13. Campers will be grouped by swim level.
