Summer Engineering Exploration (SEE) Camp Applications for SEE Camp 2017 will be open in January and will be accepted until the end of February!

The Summer Engineering Exploration (SEE) Camp is a one week, residential camp for high school students interested in engineering. Hosted by the Society of Women Engineers at the University of Michigan, SEE Camp provides opportunities for the campers to discover the possibilities of engineering. The program costs $650 (current estimate), and there are Financial Aid Scholarships available to all students in need. Please do not let cost keep you from applying. Financial Aid forms will be mailed with letters of acceptance in March. We look forward to reviewing your application!
Note: The SEE Camp 2017 application process does not include letters of recommendation.		 http://www.swe.engin.umich.edu/seecamp
COSMOS The California State Summer School in Mathematics and Science (COSMOS) at UC San Diego is a rigorous, four week residential program for talented and motivated students. COSMOS students attend clusters that are designed to introduce students to STEM subjects not traditionally offered in high school.
Students who excel in mathematics/science and are completing grades eight through twelve by the summer they are applying for are eligible. Parents and children should discuss the student's maturity and readiness to participate in a month-long residential program on a public research university campus. Tuition for 2016 is $3,400.00 for California residents.		 http://jacobsschool.ucsd.edu/cosmos/faq_prospective.shtml
Project Discovery Project Discovery is a week long, intensive learning camp for high school students.

Camp Experience
Each morning campers will learn about a field of engineering through lectures and laboratory tours. After lunch, campers will make their way back to the engineering complex to design, test and build various hands-on projects. Evenings at camp are filled with activities, competitions, and chances to unwind.		 http://engr.ku.edu/events-camps#Camps

Students will learn about engineering through hands-on activities designed to make them think creatively and use problem solving skills. Campers will also experience the KU campus during a field trip to the School of Engineering labs and classrooms. Because this is a day camp, families must pick up and drop off their camper at the beginning and ending of each day. Campers are asked to bring a sack lunch with them each day.

Registration for summer 2016 has closed. Please check back later for more information regarding summer 2017!

EPIC EPIC- Engineering Possibilities in College - is a one-week summer camp at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo that introduces campers to the varied fields of engineering through hands-on labs taught by university professors and industry professionals. EPIC campers see "Learn by Doing" in action when Cal Poly students show them the satellites, prosthetic hands, race cars, concrete canoes and other products they've developed. In addition, EPIC campers get to design, build and test their own projects!
EPIC provides an opportunity for campers to experience life on a university campus and meet others who share their interests.
If you are entering grades 7-12 in fall 2016, you are eligible to apply for the EPIC 2016 summer camp. This year's camp dates are:
July10-15 Session 1 - Middle School Day Camp & Residential Program Option (Grades 7-9)
July 17-22 Session 2 - High School Residential Program (Grades 10-11)
Residential Programs: $1,595
Middle School Day Camp: $475 (Add $1000 for residential		 https://epic.calpoly.edu/
Young Scholars Program A summer program for highly-motivated high school students to explore the world of higher education in a five-week intensive program that includes university courses, advising, and meetings with key people on campus.

Course in Engineering include: Computer Engineering
Electrical Engineering
General Engineering
Mechanical Engineering
Tuition: $629 per unit. This is a reduced tuition rate -- 50% off the regular tuition price.		 https://www.scu.edu/summer/young-scholars-program/
Stanford Pre-Collegiate Summer Institutes Engineering
Although the fields of engineering are diverse and varied, they share common principles and methodologies. This course begins with an introduction to engineering research and practice through a general overview of the engineering fields represented by the teaching staff. Students will then be split into sections, each in a different field of engineering. Three areas of engineering will be represented, each taught by an instructor with expertise and research experience in the field, and students will focus their study in one subject area for the remainder of the course. In past summers, sections have included mechanical engineering, aeronautical engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, product design, mechatronics, and other fields. Students will be involved in hands-on projects such as building robots in a mechatronics section or radio-controlled gliders in an aeronautics section. In addition to seeing general engineering principles as they are applied in a specific field, students will be introduced to the theory including the applications of mathematics, physics and other sciences. The course may include guest lectures and course-related field trips.
Tuition: $6300		 http://summerinstitutes.stanford.edu/tuition-date
