Welcome
The Joaquin Bustoz Math-Science Honors Program is an intense academic program that provides motivated students an outstanding opportunity to begin university mathematics studies before graduating high school. The program is designed to provide a successful university experience for Arizona high school students who have limited exposure to higher education opportunities in STEM to enhance their prospects for future academic success.
