Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics...everyone's heard of the subjects, but how do STEM fields impact our daily lives and what do careers in STEM look like today?
Join us for a week-long, hands-on STEM and coding camp hosted by the School of Computing at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln!
Designed for middle school students, this interactive camp explores a different STEM field each day, showcasing real-world applications, exciting careers, and the latest tech innovations.
Each day consists of a themed lesson in the morning, followed by an afternoon of visiting locations across campus and STEM-centered activities. Computing and coding are integrated throughout the camp experience. On the last day of camp, campers will present what they learned and built. Details on the showcase will be sent during camp week.
All experience levels are welcome! No prior programming experience is necessary!
