Growing Technical Talent: MESA at APL
MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement) is an investment in our future. Ensuring the supply of science and technology college graduates that America (and APL) needs requires extra effort to support young students. The MESA program is our way of providing that support.

MESA Competitions
Statewide and regional competitions help children demonstrate what they have learned through participation in the MESA program. We are always looking for volunteers to help. For more information about how you can get involved, contact Paula Shelton.
