"This is my fifth season with COSMOS. I enjoy getting to know the students and being affected by their enthusiasm. Hanging out with them near the end of the 4 weeks while they fly the airplanes they designed and built is especially enjoyable.”
--Professor Kenneth Mease, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, The Henry Samueli School of Engineering
“I’ve been having a wonderful time in the program. I have a great group of students, very motivated. I myself am learning a new programming language. I like it!”
--Ms. Roberta Johnson, Teacher Fellow for Bioinformatics, Long Beach USD
“Working with this bright and enthusiastic group of young people has been wonderful. I wouldn't be surprised to see many of them at the forefront of scientific discovery within ten years’ time. On top of all of their great academic qualities, these kids are fun to be around, with great personalities and real zest for life. I'm very proud of our astro cluster.”
--Professor James Bullock, Physics & Astronomy, UCI School of Physical Sciences
"Witnessing the transformation of the students as they reach their full
potential has been my
greatest COSMOS experience."
--Ismael Herrera, Head Male RA
