University Of Arkansas Pre-College Summer: Explore Engineering

This exploratory camp is like a vibrant playground for young minds, a dynamic laboratory where ideas take shape and creativity meets STEM. It's where science, technology, engineering, and design come together in a week-long, full-day program, perfect for those who've just wrapped up 7th or 8th grade.But this isn't just any regular STEM camp. This year, the program is turning up the thrill factor with a theme that screams fun: Engineering Entertainment: Amusement Park Challenge. Students will plunge headfirst into the world of amusement park design, choosing sites, crafting ride designs, and implementing engineering strategies that make those heart-stopping roller coasters and gravity-defying rides possible.Registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis, so it's a race to secure a spot. And while the program fee takes care of the essentials – snacks, a t-shirt, insurance, and other camp expenses – lunch isn't part of the package. However, if packing a lunch daily is a hurdle, the camp is more than willing to work out an alternative solution.But here's the silver lining: scholarships are up for grabs, thanks to the generosity of several sponsors. All you need to do is complete the scholarship section of the application before the deadline.Located at the University of Arkansas campus, more details about the camp's exact location will be shared once registration is finalized. So, gear up for a summer where fun meets learning, where your child's dreams of engineering come alive, and where creativity takes a thrilling roller coaster ride!
