description
Last year, more than 300 participants joined the first Activate. After its succes, this year's Activate will continue to inspire girls to experience science, technology, engineering, art, and math in a fun and exciting way. The goal of the program is two-fold: inspiring girls in the pursuit of STEM education, and we demonstrating the myriad of STEM career opportunities.
IceCube, the biggest and strangest telescope in the world, was built in one of the most remote and extreme environments on Earth to develop new ways to explore the universe. In this major, you’ll learn about neutrinos—the mysterious cosmic messengers detected by IceCube—and what neutrinos tell us about the composition of matter, cosmic explosions, and more.
