The Manhattan Project

The Manhattan Project was one of the most secretive and consequential scientific undertakings in history. In this committee, you’ll step into the shoes of physicists, military officials, and policymakers racing against time during World War II to unlock the power of the atom. As nations compete for technological supremacy, you’ll grapple with questions of security, ethics, and global power—deciding not only how to develop a weapon of unprecedented force, but whether it should be used at all. If you’re ready to navigate high-stakes strategy, scientific innovation, and moral dilemmas that will alter the course of history, this is your chance to shape the world at a pivotal moment.
