Projects
Each year the Boston Project Center supports a number of student projects. By the end of the 8 week of the project students complete an extensive project report and, if requested, other deliverables, such as websites, brochures, curricula and other materials. They also present their results to the sponsor and at a reception held in the Boston area (typically at the Boston Public Library).
Please check out the specific project pages for additional information on project challenges and accomplishments.
