What We Offer

If you’re a Barnard student, you can show up with a specific project, defined problem to solve, or creative solution to pursue. We’ll help you figure out how to tackle or advance your idea. In academic year 2020-2021, the best way to do that is through ThirdSpace@. 

You can participate in an Athena Challenge — a project offered by us and a partner, supported by our extraordinary faculty and community. (Challenges will resume when we are all back on campus.)

You can learn directly from experts, through field trips, conferences, and fellowships, as well as hands-on workshops and mini-classes that teach you coding and help you develop financial fluency. 

For high school students, we offer the Athena Summer Innovation Institute — an intensive, immersive experience that touches on a bit of all of the above.
