UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTICUT EARLY COLLEGE EXPERIENCE

The University of Connecticut Early College Experience (ECE) provides academically motivated students the opportunity to take university courses while still in high school.  ECE instructors are high school teachers certified as adjunct professors by the University. ECE faculty foster independent learning, creativity and critical thinking – all pivotal for success in college. Brookfield High School offers ECE courses in History, English, Math, Science and Music.  To support rigorous learning, University of Connecticut academic resources, including library and online classroom access, are available to all ECE students.
