HS
From ung.igem.org
What is the High School Division? This division of iGEM was developed to allow synthetic biology to enter into the high school curriculum. Synthetic Biology is a growing area of science that fuses Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. The High School division brings synthetic biology from the world of academia into local communities. The calender for the iGEM HS runs from August to May, with the jamboree being held in June. This allows leaders to work with high school students schedules and allow high school students to experience synthetic biology.

Are you worried that you can not do synthetic biology? Interested in how you can use synthetic biology in the classroom. Attend a synthetic biology workshop! You will learn how to incorporate synthetic biology into biology, AP biology, biotech, and other science or engineering classes. You will learn through hands-on labs. The labs will show you the mathematical and engineering side of synthetic biology and touch up on your genetics. The last day of the workshop will be towards developing an iGEM team at your high school.
Purdue University will be holding a synthetic biology workshop in June!
If you are interested please contact Rebecca Schini at rebecca@igem.org or rschini@gcsc.k12.in.us.
