Message from the Program Director and Coordinator of CWRU’s Project SEED Program: Dear high school students, parents, and educators, I hope that you and your loved ones are doing well. The national ACS Project SEED summer program has decided to cancel the 2021 in-person summer program to prioritize safety due to the ongoing pandemic. Instead, they are organizing a Virtual Summer Camp this year again from June 21 to July 30, 2021. You can find further information by visiting the ACS SEED webpage. I am looking forward to the opportunity to restore the ACS SEED Program at CWRU in the summer of 2022. Sincerely, Carlos Crespo
About Project SEEDParticipants are given a research project in chemistry and are supervised by a Case Western Reserve University scientist-mentor. Summer I students will receive a fellowship award of $2,500, while summer II students will receive a fellowship award of $3,000 for 8 weeks of full-time work (~35 hours/week). The summer 2019 program is expected to start on June 10 and end on August 2.

Most of these students have participated for two consecutive summers (i.e., the maximum allowed by the program). As shown in the list of fellows below, at least 38 of these SEED students are pursuing (or are planning to pursuit) a college degree in STEM as of 2018; a ~88% retention rate.

These report cards are automatically generated from data and do not reflect a grade, but rather a visualization of student/mentor responses. Each report card is automatically generated using the data given and a visualization software. Any irregularities or questions can be addressed with the Project SEED National Office.
