Project SEED
Aims of Project SEED
Project SEED provides high school students from economically disadvantaged circumstances with paid summer chemistry research experiences at local institutions.
This program is organized by the American Chemical Society at the national level, but the Chicago ACS does the heavy lifting to connect students with research labs and providing their funding.
For many years, the Chicago ACS has sponsored between two and five high school students as researchers in university laboratories. To participate, please contact Raelynn Miller, Chair of the Chicago ACS' Project SEED committee: [email protected]
Project SEED Scholarships
Chicago ACS is now providing TWO scholarships for graduates of the Project SEED program. Given to college-bound high school students who have participated in chemistry research under the Project SEED program, we provide two levels of scholarships:
$6,000
$4,000
