For two weeks in March, the entire Lawrence Academy community shifts its attention from the regular academic routine to intensive courses of study that are dedicated to experiential learning.

Visit to the MIT Museum
Our engineering winterim group visited what could be the capital of the engineering field, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. We toured the campus with one of our leaders, Ms. Katherine Shroyer, an alumna and employee of MIT. We also visited the MIT museum which features exhibits on engineering and design, including robots and underwater vehicles, pictured below.
