The Young Science Achievers Program offers grants of up to $500 to fund science research projects carried out by high school students. YSAP serves public and private high schools (grades 9 through 12) throughout the state of New Jersey and New York City and is open to all applicants but targets young women of any ethnicity and males of African American, Hispanic, or Native American descent. A goal of this program is to increase the number of participants from underrepresented groups in science, technology, engineering and math fields. Additional support in the form of mentorship from professionals from world-class research institutions and leadership from dedicated high school science teachers is provided. Together the students, mentors and teachers spend the winter and spring semesters designing and conducting experiments from a wide variety of science and engineering fields.
