Waynesburg University’s annual STEAM Camp will be held Sunday, July 21, through Thursday, July 25, on its main campus. The camp, which promotes learning in the fields of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics, is open to high school students entering grades nine through 12 in the fall.
The cost is $300 and includes instruction, all camp activities, lodging in the University’s upperclassmen residence halls and hot, buffet-style meals throughout the entire camp. To register, visit waynesburg.edu/steam-camp. The deadline to register is Friday, June 28.
Scholarships are available to students who are in need of financial assistance. To apply, students must complete an online form on the registration webpage. All requests are due by June 5, and successful recipients will be notified no later than June 12.
All participants are involved in the same evening programs but select their own traditional class sessions. This year’s sessions include: genetics or digital animation; microscopy and microbiology or biomedical topics; science fiction vs. science fact or journey into the chemistry lab; biochemistry or physiology; and animal disease or skeletal anatomy.
Additionally, campers participate in rapid prototyping and mathematics sessions, as well as a field trip to the IU1 Fab Lab in Waynesburg.
