TARGET (The Academy at Rutgers for Girls in Engineering and Technology) is a summer program designed to increase awareness in middle school and high school girls about the career opportunities available in engineering. TARGET encompasses five different one week commuter programs of 24 girls each.
Through a series of hands-on activities, team challenges, speakers, and mentorships, TARGET aims to familiarize girls with different engineering disciplines and destroy negative stereotypes concerning their ability to do well in math and science.
