STARS IIT

STARS IIT This is the official page for STARS at IIT. This program quickly grew as we expanded our team and our programs.

STARS computing corps is a national non-profit community of regional partnerships dedicated to building and preparing a larger, more diverse national computing workforce for the 21st century. The students and faculty that compose our team are from the Illinois Institute of Technology's computer science department. Our beginnings started with a Saturday program for middle school girls (6th-8th) wit

h the goal of cultivating a love for computer science, an uncommon field for women. We even added more short and long term goals and a 4-week after school program! Through teaching the students the LEGO mindstorm interface, how to build the robot and program the robot, we are accomplishing our goals. Students are excited and motivated to learn how to program games for themselves. Our team quickly became mentors to them, encouraging them to ask us questions about anything while we keep the lines of communication open. We are excited to push forward and grow during this upcoming year!
