The College of Business at Appalachian State is excited to share with you that the Technovation for Good, a program for rising high school sophomores - rising seniors, including those in underrepresented populations, is officially accepting applications for Summer 2023!

The program's aim is to provide students hands-on, practical experience with Programming, Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, Mobile Application Development, Sustainability, Analytics and/or Internet of Things. In addition, this program offers students an opportunity to learn entrepreneurial and leadership skill sets, hear from local professionals, meet other students with similar career interests, and attend workshops to enhance IT and business skills in a college setting. Students will apply these skills to address social problems relevant to the local region and beyond.

The goal of this program is to provide an environment that promotes inclusiveness and educational equity. We encourage applications from diverse groups of students (especially first generation, underrepresented ethnic minorities, socio-economic status, etc.) who will have equity to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education and opportunities. Thanks to our sponsors, need-based scholarships will be provided to ensure that students with financial need can participate in the program.

Below is additional information including program dates, application deadline, contact information, etc.
Program dates: July 16th, 2022 - July 28th, 2023
