Summer Engineering Academies are an opportunity for young people who would like to explore the world of Engineering. Each program provides a unique opportunity to discover the possibilities for an exciting field of study and career.
Important Links:
These Day Camps are a partnership between Chevron’s C.R.E.A.T.E. program and the Bagley College of Engineering. Using legos and hands-on materials, participants will explore engineering and STEM concepts through a unique mind and hands-on experience. Each session will rely on the principles of the Engineering Design Process as presented in an engaging forum.
Applications will not be reviewed until application fee (nonrefundable) is paid and all required documents are turned in.
