Experience
America
Experience America started five
years ago with the goal of creating summer programs for high school students
which we hope they will love. A core focus of our programs is to give our
students a candid look into these industries before they take the next steps in
their education. We developed our
programs with the University of Washington in Seattle, as well as The Fashion
Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) in Los Angeles.
·
Entrepreneurship (UW): Helping students learn how to
start a successful business with University of Washington’s Foster School of
Business and visit with local startups.
·
Game Experience (UW): Introduces students to game
development, teaching them elements of design, animation, and manage their own
game companies.
·
Fashion at FiDM: This program is for students who
want to dive into LA's fashion and design industry and learn how to take
designs from concept to consumer.
·
Experience Japan (Nagoya & Tokyo): This immersion trip is for students who
have a passion for Japanese language and culture. It gives students the
opportunity to explore Japan as a tourist, student, and professional.
