Come see how your math and science talents can pave the way for a rewarding career in engineering!

Deciding on an engineering career can be difficult, especially if you’re not sure exactly what being an engineer involves. Whether building blast resistant buildings, producing clean energy, designing components for automobiles, or a wide variety of other engineering jobs this program was developed to give high school juniors and seniors first-hand knowledge of what engineers actually do. The “Intro” course will help you understand how mathematics and the sciences relate to engineering, and if engineering is a career choice for you.

This camp is for high school juniors and seniors who love working with computers and digital technologies. C.H.I.P. campers will enjoy “hands-on” computing in a variety of fields such as:

Computer Engineering: Designed to prepare engineers to work in the abstract world of software design and engineering and in the physical world where designs are often compromises between many opposing factors.

Computer Science: A dynamic field that includes development of algorithms (techniques for solving problems with computers), software development, and hardware/software implementations.
