Digital Media Academy - Robotics and Engineering Rolling application Stanford June 26 - July 7
July 31 - Aug 11
Ages 12-17 One- or multiple-week summer camp programs are taught by tech experts and robotics pros in a fun, engaging and hands-on robotics & engineering experience.

Kids (ages 6-12) and Teens (12-17) create robots to complete awesome challenges. Design and build water rockets and circuits, or create robots using the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® EV3 robotics systems and the Arduino™ electronics prototyping platform.
Beall Center - Expressive Robotics Applications now open University of California, Irvine Session 1: July 10  - 21, 2017
Session 2: August 7 - 18, 2017
Ages 13-19 Unleash the power of S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) education as you build a robotic structure that moves expressively! Campers will participate in activities related to each S.T.E.A.M. field as they work towards their final project, and will be challenged to put their creativity to the test. UCI student instructors will guide you through our onsite Maker Space, Mobile 3D Print Lab, and Arduino Portal as you work with a teammate to create an awesome ‘bot. Campers will have access to our workshop full of diverse materials, including Vex robotics parts, breadboards, LEDs, motors, art supplies, fabric, and a soldering station. Debut your inventions at our Open House showcase on the last day of camp, and learn from our guest speakers about how they use S.T.E.A.M. in their careers!
No prior coding, programming, or robotics experience is required, and course content is adjusted to the experience level of each camper. Camps do not provide overnight lodging. Need and merit-based scholarships are available thanks to Boeing and the Nicholas Foundation.

UCLATech Program Applications open in Dec 2016. UCLA June - Aug 2017 Grade 10,11 Are you a high school student interested in exercising your imagination and building things with your hands? Are you interested in learning more about engineering? Need some fun creating new things this summer? Want to get a competitive edge on your peers? The UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science (HSSEAS) in conjunction with the Engineering Science Corps Outreach Program invites ambitious high school students to apply to the UCLA HSSEAS Summer High School Tech Camps.

This 4 week summer day-camp exposes rising sophomores and juniors to the creative nature of engineering through project-based activities and team challenges. Campers will experience working in HSSEAS’ state of the art Creativity Center along-side hand selected UCLA engineering student mentors under the direction of UCLA faculty and program staff.
California State Summer School for Mathematics and Science (COSMOS) Applications open Dec 2016 UC Irivine, Santa Cruz, San Diego and Davis UC Irvine: July 10 - August 5
UC Santa Cruz, San Diego and Davis: July 10-August 6
8-12 grade Statewide, we offer a variety of academic clusters at four University of California campuses.  Each program consists of two science and/or math courses and a science communication course.  Courses are taught by active UC faculty and researchers.  Students participate in hands-on labs, field activities, lectures and discussions.  Students also work on a related research project.  Cluster sizes vary but typically range from 18-24 students and the student-to-faculty ration is commonly 5:1.
