What is USTEP?

USTEP (University Student Taught Engineering Program) is a one-day, fun-filled, educational outreach program for middle school students in the local Charlottesville community. The event will be hosted by the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) at UVA. Middle schoolers will be able to have a one of kind experience to visit Grounds and take classes taught by UVA Engineering students. Students will be able to take 4 classes they find interesting from our class catalog which includes topics such as forensics to introduction to programming.

USTEP Background

The idea for USTEP was inspired by an event called Splash that is held at universities all over the United States. The ultimate goal of USTEP is to allow students to be inspired by college students and get excited about learning new things, in a fun and stress-free environment.

We hope you are interested and join us in our very first USTEP event this year! We will be sending out details about registering for classes soon!
