What's new this summer?
Under normal circumstances, the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) offers residential summer programs where middle and high school students in Ohio gain hands-on STEM experience and learn to collaborate with their peers. Due to COVID-19, OSC has shifted these programs to online formats to prioritize the health of staff and students. OSC summer programs will return to normal in 2022, so keep an eye out for more details in late 2021.
