The Wake Forest Summer Immersion Program empowers high school students to manifest their goals. In the Summer Immersion Technology Institute, students will learn how big data is leveraged to shape buying habits and consider the security ramifications and implications that a world shaped by the Internet of Things presents. We will explore the opportunities available in the job market at places that might not be realized. There will also be basic hands-on experiences with hardware and software giving students a taste of what it’s like to work as a programmer. This Institute explores technology from the inside out.
