Do you love to ask why things work and how to make them better? Do you excel in science and math? Are you ready to take a deep dive into the world of engineering beyond what you can learn in school? In this camp, curious and motivated students take a hands-on, immersive journey into engineering, including some advanced presentations designed to inspire passion and expand your understanding. Tackle creative engineering challenges and explore a variety of engineering disciplines, getting an exciting glimpse into real-world applications and cutting-edge research. Field trips to local facilities and labs allow you to see engineering in action and discover paths you might not have known existed. Drop off and pick up will vary based on the day’s activities, taking place at UNL City Campus, UNL East Campus and Dawes Middle School. Parents will be responsible for camper drop off and pick up at one of these sites each day. The exact schedule and daily locations will be shared with participants the week before camp begins. Join us to experience challenging activities and learn how engineering impacts the health, happiness and safety of your world! Please wear close-toed shoes each day.
