Camp Description

What better way could there be for nurturing budding interests in science, math, or engineering than through hands-on activities in the University of Delaware’s engineering laboratories and classrooms?! Students will be immersed in the dynamic world of engineering, where they will begin to think and act like engineers -- working in teams, learning from engineering students, faculty and staff, and watching for ways to improve life around them by modifying an existing condition or product, or by designing their own new product. By the end of the camp, they will have collaborated on an invention plan and will be ready to share that plan with you at the “Cool Stuff Fair” -- 2-3 p.m. on Friday, July 10th and Friday, July 17th, for the respective camp sessions -- so that parents, guardians, and friends can visit and admire the displays before the close of the 2009 Engineering Cool Stuff camps.


Who should attend?

This day camp for 12-16 year olds (or rising 7th through 10th graders) is designed for students with an interest in science, math, and engineering. (NOTE: Parents/guardians will be asked to remove their students from the camp if the students are not attentive to the rules of the lab/classrooms, thereby causing distractions and putting themselves and others at risk. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.)


What will the students be doing?

Camp sessions feature some common activities and some unique to that session. Some activities are common to last year, but are ones that students have indicated they would like to do again. On the registration form, select just one session. If that session is already filled, we will contact you to let you know of openings in the alternate session and/or the waiting list.

Session I Activities (July 6-10):

Session II Activities (July 13-17):
