Thank you for your interest in participating in the Solid GEMS Summer Institutes – Chemistry & Biology.
These institutes are designed to enhance student opportunity for successful completion of introductory science coursework with the goal of expediting enrollment in upper-division science courses. Participants are required to attend academic classes, supplemental instruction sessions, academic excursions, and engage in research discussions throughout the 13 week institute. Participation in either of the summer institutes requires full-time enrollment in summer program activities; thus, you will not be able to enroll in other coursework.
This program is funded through a grant received from the New Jersey Office of the Secretary of Higher Education Educational Opportunity Fund; thus, only EOF funded students are eligible for participation. If sufficient funds are not received, the program will not commence and students must identify alternative summer academic experiences.
Applications will open Spring 2026. Contact Dr. Jacqueline Moore for more details.
