Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Curtis

    This experience has forced me to look at something new and has inspired me to enrich and improve my classes.

  • Laura

    I LOVED the chance to talk with some of the students that have been involved in the NITARP program. It was really good to hear of their insights and thoughts about the program, the process, and how it influenced their year and future plans.

  • Edwards

    The science part of our project was overwhelming to me at first. [...]Since then I have learned an incredible amount from my mentor teacher, mentor scientists and my group members.
