Engineering the Next Generation (ENG)
The ENG Summer 2025 application is now live!
Current 11th-grade students, click here to apply! (After clicking the link, please select "Log in" or "Create an account" near the top of the page to be taken to the ENG application. Do not click the apply now button)
*Note: The ENG program is open only to current 11th graders (rising seniors in summer 2025) who reside in and attend school in 5 boroughs of NYC or the Palm Beach, FL area. Students interested in the Foundations of Research track must also complete the DYCD's Ladders for Leaders application, which is now live, as this is how stipends are received. Applicants interested in the CS3 My Streetscape track do not need to complete the Ladders for Leaders application and will receive compensation through CS3. ALL participants must receive a stipend to be on campus. Read more information about Ladders for Leaders and each ENG track below.
The deadline to apply to Ladders for Leaders is February 3rd, 2025, and anyone looking to join the Foundations of Research track must complete it. The CS3 MyStreetscape track deadline is March 3, 2025, and does not require the Ladders for Leaders application. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis; apply sooner rather than later for the best chance at acceptance.
Ladders for Leaders
All students who wish to join the Foundations of Research track must complete the Ladders for Leaders application in addition to the ENG application. The Ladders for Leaders Application window is from Monday, December 9th 2024 - Monday, February 3rd, 2025.
When completing the application, applicants must choose "PENCIL" as their provider if they wish to be matched to the ENG program.
