STEPS Engineering Camp for Girls
Science Technology Engineering Preview Summer Camp (STEPS) for girls, grades 9-12, is a one-week introduction to the world of technology and engineering. Campers participate in hands-on activities that give them an understanding of what engineers do. Students will also explore science and engineering topics such as materials, clean manufacturing, CAD and team building. During this camp, girls will work with and program robots, then show off their skills at the closing luncheon! Of course there is time for fun! The camp also includes a number of activities that may include swimming, pizza parties, a field trip, etc. Participants will experience dorm life, cafeteria food and learn what it is like to be on a college campus.
This is an overnight residential camp. A room will be provided in a residence hall on the School of Mines campus for the entire week. There will be 2-4 campers per room. Counselors are assigned to the campers in a ratio of one for every 15 girls. The camp will provide all meals.
