Welcome to SPIRIT!
The SPIRIT project celebrates the immense impact that information technology has on our
world and seeks to rekindle enthusiasm for the field as a career choice among high school
students, especially young women.
Launched in summer 2008, SPIRIT programs involved professional development opportunities
for high school teachers and counselors and a summer camp program for high school students
who have been endorsed by their high school teachers.
SPIRIT is made possible by a grant from the National Science Foundation and is
administered and taught by Purdue's College of Technology faculty in collaboration with
faculty from the College of Science and experienced consultants.
