My partners over the summer allowed me to develop my social skills to work with others and be able to communicate with one another when an issue had arisen. Not only did we help each other build parts for the robot and help write lines of code, but actually spent time together as if we’ve known each other for years by spending lunch together to hanging out after program hours for a while. Traveling to Picatinny Arsenal and Princeton University to learn about the type of engineering work that is done, brought us together more and had wished there were more planned trips to go on. The long 3-4 hour long bus rides that felt like an eternity, but always had a great time getting to know one another, were the most memorable moments during my summer at the Summer Mentorship Program. With very few hours to work with, I strive that future students who decided to enter the program get an extra hour or so, together and get more time to be able to finish
