Engineering Summer Camp for
Middle-School Girls

July 12 - 16, 2010
8:45 AM – 3:30 PM Mon-Fri
Lehigh Campus
The Summer CHOICES Engineering Camp is a popular hands-on learning experience in engineering and science for 6^th, 7^th, or 8^th grade middle-school girls.

The CHOICES summer camp is designed to provide girls with the opportunity to participate in a variety of fun engineering and science experiments led by women engineers (students and faculty) from Lehigh University’s P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science.

What's more, collaboration with the NASA Goddard Space Center SISTER program offers even more opportunity to make new friends while learning what science and engineering could mean to your future.

Throughout this week-long camp, the girls will be introduced to a variety of fun and challenging activities that are organized by engineering mentors. Past projects have included:

Assembling & testing fruit batteries - Materials Science Engineering

Building a Burglar Alarm - Electrical Engineering

Developing a new funny putty- Chemical Engineering

Programming a robot - Computer Engineering

Purifying muddy water - Civil & Environmental Engineering

The camp is limited to only 20 girls who will work on a combination of individual and team projects throughout the week. On the last day, after a picnic lunch, teams present their accomplishments before Lehigh staff and invited family and friends.

The Summer CHOICES program is now in its 8th year and is more popular than ever, so please register soon as space is limited to ensure the best experience for the campers.
