About TryEngineering's Engineering Camp
Our Engineering Summer Institute Goal
The goal of our 2024 engineering camp is to spark enthusiasm in engineering and technology in the next generation of problem-solvers and difference-makers, and position these innovators for long-term success in academics and in life.
How do we do it?
Organized in nine day sessions each summer, on university campuses across the USA, the IEEE TryEngineering Summer Institute unites students from around the world -- co-ed, between 13-17 years old -- to:
- engage in hands-on design challenges
- experience the work firsthand with behind-the-scenes tours with real-life engineers
- discover not just what's happening today, but what's coming tomorrow, through conversations with renowned guest speakers and incredible Summer Institute counselors
- create a future of possibility that is fully realized and present for each and every student
- build skills and conceptual knowledge through hands-on work doing design challenges and classwork building and creating projects of increasing difficulty
- each student is issued a program-owned laptop for each student to use for the duration of the program at a 1:1 ratio
Give us nine days at our engineering summer camp, and we'll give you a new definition of what it means to be an engineer.
