Working together, we can do more
The future of innovation in technology depends on continuing to build this unique partnership among IUPUI, high schools, industry, and the community.
Problem-based and project-based curriculum
In each project, student teams collaboratively design and build a solution to a problem within a particular context using a specific technology.
The iDEW program introduced me to and prepared me for my college career in informatics. Without this experience and the support of the iDEW staff, I don't know if I would have been as prepared.
