The Summer and Autumn School programs of the Andrey Melnichenko Foundation accept pupils from the centres for the development of children's creativity in science and engineering, created within the framework of the "Support Programme for Gifted Children".
Participants of the schools are immersed in a rich program of olympiad training in the subjects of the natural sciences cycle or project work in the field of engineering and design activities. In addition to theoretical studies, young scientists attend workshops and communicate with outstanding Russian scientists, participate in creative and sporting events.
Every year the Andrey Melnichenko Foundation's Summer and Autumn Schools allow gifted schoolchildren from Russian regions to gain in-depth knowledge in the field of natural sciences, prepare for the All-Russian School Olympiads and project competitions and develop their communication skills to present the results of their work at national and international events.
