Students work in lab

In Pathways in Molecular Engineering, faculty from the UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering teach rising tenth through twelfth graders the basics of chemical and mechanical engineering, materials science, physics, nanotechnology and molecular modeling.

In Pathways, UChicago PME faculty and graduate students lead a course introducing high school students to key molecular engineering concepts and the way they relate to real-world design problems. Summer Pathways programs provide a broad overview of how scholars at the University of Chicago articulate engineering problems and apply solutions.
