Changing the face(s) of science
The Indiana University Jim Holland Summer Science Programs are specifically designed to expand participation and retention in STEM disciplines by providing opportunities for academically high-achieving students. Our goals are to foster and sustain prolonged interest and enthusiasm in the sciences, to provide positive, diverse, hands-on exposures to research, and to help students develop an awareness of career opportunities. The Holland programs focus on students currently in grades 8-11 (entering grades 9, 10, 11, and 12 in the fall) and hope to attract them to Indiana University for their college education. Please note that only students residing in the United States are eligible to apply. By offering hands-on research experiences, mentorship from faculty, and a welcoming, supportive environment, we aim to increase participation in STEM and, thus, to contribute to the next generation of scientists and innovators.
Applications for the 2026 Holland Summer Science Programs are closed.
