20th Annual Summer Workshop
June 5-7, 2019
About the Workshop The GROW Workshop is a three-day exploration event designed to foster girls' continu-
ing interest in pursuing majors or careers in science, technology, engineering, math
(STEM) or pre-health fields. The event will be held on the Kansas State University campus
in Manhattan.
Who Should Attend? The GROW Workshop is for students who will complete 5th, 6th, or 7th grade in May
2019. Students can come on their own or with friends from their school or community.
What Will We Do? Participants will be assigned to groups of 8-10 students. Each group will participate in
hands-on activities developed and facilitated by K-State faculty and graduate students
from a variety of STEM fields. Interaction with professors will allow the participants to gain
insight into careers in these fields.
Housing and Dining Program participants will be housed in residence hall rooms (double occupancy) at
Kansas State University. On the registration form, participants can indicate the name of
another student with whom they would like to share a room. We will make every effort
to fulfill the request.
All meals from lunch on Wednesday to lunch on Friday are included in the registration
fee. Snacks are provided during the morning and afternoon sessions, as well as in the
residence halls in the evening.
Transportation and Parking Participants are responsible for their own transportation to and from Kansas State Uni-
versity, Manhattan campus. Residence halls are within walking distance of on-campus
activities. Transportation will be provided to any activities off campus.
Parking permits are required for all vehicles parked on the K-State campus. They are not
required for drop-off / pick-up at the residence halls, however they will be needed if the
driver plans on attending the welcoming ceremony on Wednesday morning or the clos-
ing ceremony on Friday afternoon. Parents are welcome to attend both ceremonies.
When & Where? The GROW Workshop will begin at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, June 5, 2019. Attendees
should plan to arrive on the K-State Manhattan campus by 9 a.m. June 5 to allow time
for registration and to check into residence halls. The workshop will conclude by 5 p.m.
on Friday, June 7, 2019.
