Curiosity Is Up for Bid!

What happens when Summer Science Program alumni put their knowledge, talents, and experiences up for auction? You'll find opportunities as varied and fascinating as the alumni community itself.

The Summer Science Program Alumni Skill Auction brings together one-of-a-kind experiences donated by alumni across generations and fields. Bid on everything from private lessons and career conversations to expert Q&As, creative experiences, and opportunities to explore fascinating corners of science, technology, entrepreneurship, the arts, and beyond.

Learn a new language. Explore your family history. Go behind the scenes of forensic DNA or live entertainment technology. Hear what it's like to fly scientific research missions, build an aerospace company, or work as a software engineer at Google. You might even enjoy a private concert inspired by the stars.

How It Works

Browse the experiences and bid on your favorites. Winning bidders will be connected with the alumni donor following the auction to coordinate their experience.

The auction is open to everyone who believes in SSPI and will close during the Annual Gathering Weekend's Gala & Awards on Saturday, November 7.

When you place a bid, you're investing in the next generation of curious young scientists and helping SSPI continue creating the opportunities that bring this community together.

Browse the auction, discover something that sparks your curiosity, and bid generously.

Their talent. Your curiosity. Our shared impact.
