Soaring High in Engineering (SHE) is a  camp developed specifically for young women*. During this full day camp, attendees will participate in engaging, hands-on activities designed with a real world theme to expose them to everything a people can do as an engineer. 

In this weeklong, full day camp, students will participate in food related engineering activities. Projects range from planning and building an aeroponic farm to powering a light with a potato. Students entering the 7^th or 8^th grade during the 2024-2025 school year are eligible to apply.

 

2024 Theme: TBD

*STEM education researchers have devoted substantial effort toward developing, implementing, and assessing strategies that encourage the persistence of women, especially those from underrepresented groups in STEM fields. While our Soaring High in Engineering and GirlTREC camps are designed to integrate these proven pedagogical strategies that are especially aligned with the needs and interests of young women, we welcome any student to participate in camp activities.
