Wake Forest University: Summer Immersion Programs

The Wake Forest Summer Immersion Program is an unforgettable experience that allows rising sophomores, juniors, seniors and incoming college freshmen the opportunity to test-drive their career goals and get a glimpse of the future.

This summer, students are invited to take a deep-dive into a specific career-field with access to world-class faculty, researchers, and industry professionals. Our program is transformational as students think about their futures and prepare for college. Students’ passions are ignited when they can see what it’s really like to be a cardiologist, entrepreneur, defense attorney, and sports marketing executive, all while becoming leaders in their communities.
