John F. Carney, III

In a world growing increasingly dependent on science and technology, tomorrow's scientists and engineers must be prepared to be leaders in more than just their chosen professions. Research and learning go hand-in-hand on our campus. The Academy exposes students to theory and practice, develops their teamwork skills and gives them an opportunity to incorporate technology into all disciplines. I invite you to strive toward excellence by participating in our Summer Research Academy. SRA alumni have gone on to see their summer work exhibited at national conferences, attend some of the country's finest universities and have impacted our world. Join the tradition!
