Governor's School in the Sciences

The New Jersey Governor's School in the Sciences (NJGSS), is one of the six schools that compose the Governor's School of New Jersey program. Since its inception, the program has been held at Drew University in Madison, New Jersey and aims to educate scholars in the fields of science and math. A scholar participates in a team project, an elective, and three core courses, which can range from molecular orbital theory to human evolution to infectious diseases. Available team projects included experiments in psychology, math, and kinetics.

The team projects at NJGSS are set up by team project leaders, who are usually professors. The scholars then either design their own experiments or they follow other preset experiments. By the end of the governor's school, each team puts together a paper and a slideshow. The slideshow is presented to each other team, the professors, and any sponsors on the last day of governor's school.
