What is the Georgia Ready Summer Institute (GRSI)?
The Georgia Ready Summer Institute is a one-week, cohort-based residential program for high-achieving high school students throughout Georgia who are going into their senior year. The institute’s focus will center on research and innovation.
During their experience, participants will begin exploring desired research interests, discovering how researchers identify problems, collect and analyze data, and engage in entrepreneurial and commercialization endeavors. Additional activities will provide the pre-collegiate scholars with a greater understanding of themselves, fostering enhanced critical thinking and public speaking skills by participating in an active-learning activity that will broaden their conceptions of community, uncovering how societal issues can impact their work. Most importantly, participants will gain a glimpse of what life as a UGA scholar is like, living in a campus residence hall, eating at our award-winning dining halls, as well as touring the Athens campus and various research facilities.
There is no cost to attend the institute.
