Overview:
TheCatalyst Summer Program is a 2-week program that offers a unique, interdisciplinary approach to the “traditional leadership program”. Drawing from the University of Waterloo’s strengths in engineering, science, and innovation, high school students develop leadership skills within a community and problem-based context - with real opportunities to put new skills to practice!
Due to significant interest in Catalyst over the last few years, and in-particular the entrepreneurship aspects of the program, for 2024, we have added a second stream of Catalyst, entitled “Catalyst - Early Entrepreneurs” which focuses on innovation, entrepreneurship, and business. This stream is in collaboration with the Conrad School of Entrepreneurship and Business at the University of Waterloo.
