Dear Career and Technology Education Curriculum Supervisor Kristine Pearl:

 Give your talented math and science students the confidence to own, shape, and decide their future.  Introduce them to Johns Hopkins Biomedical Engineering Innovation (BMEI) and Explore Engineering Innovation (EEI), both are courses where we are reimagining engineering – one future at a time.

The application is now open for the Spring Session of BMEI is open now. The application for the Summer Session of EEI and BMEI will open on December 15th.

Both courses introduce students to engineering through hands-on labs and college-level lectures.  Students who earn an A or B have the opportunity to earn college credit.

 Like you, we understand the importance of stimulating the inner drive of students and giving them access to opportunities to ignite this.  That’s why, together, we can reimagine the future of engineering.

 Please look at the requirements for these exciting courses and share the information with your students and their parents.

 Contact JHU or Mr. Patrick Greene with any questions.

Sincerely,

Johns Hopkins University
