Fort Hays State University's Kansas Academy of Mathematics and Science (KAMS) will host a series of free in-person and virtual information sessions during September, October, and December.
High school students interested in the two-year, on-campus, early-college program can choose from 10 in-person sessions offered at locations across Kansas or four virtual webinars.
KAMS is an early college program that focuses on advanced mathematics and science coursework. While studying at KAMS, students live on the FHSU campus in a select residence hall with other Academy students from around the world. Over the course of two years, students complete over 60 hours of college credit and complete their high school diploma. These college classes are taken alongside traditional college undergraduates and taught by college professors while simultaneously contributing to their high school graduation requirements. KAMS also provides hands-on research, leadership, and civic engagement opportunities.
Students and guests can learn about KAMS and visit with representatives from the academy at these sessions. Please visit the registration website at http://www.fhsu.edu/kams/Info-session-registration/ to find a session in your area.
