WPAFB Air Force Research Lab hosting summer program LEGACY

This summer 2017, Wright-Patterson's Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is

introducing a new student program called LEGACY. This program hopes to reach

a wide range of students and increase STEM interests. LEGACY is designed for

students from sixth grade to completion of their bachelor's degree. There

are three phases of LEGACY: Craftsman, Junior Apprentice and Apprentice.

Details on this summer's LEGACY phases are listed below.

 Craftsman Phase

- A free, STEM-inspired, hands-on camp for 6th-9th graders.

                - The sixth and seventh grade camp dates are June 19th-23rd.

                - The eighth and ninth grade dates are June 26th-30th.

- Applications must be submitted by April 16th.

 

Junior Apprentice Phase

- A paid apprenticeship for students entering 10th-12th graders to work with

mentors in AFRL labs.

                - Students must work a minimum of six weeks.

                - Apprenticeships will run between June and August.

- Students must have a minimum GPA of 2.5.

- Applications must be submitted by June 23rd.

 

The LEGACY program hopes to keep students coming back each year and

ultimately prepare them for a civilian STEM career in the Air Force.
