- CAD Summer Camp
Master one of the most essential skills in robotics and engineering by learning CAD through hands-on design. In this camp, you'll start by creating a stylized 3D ice cream truck using Onshape—a fun way to explore advanced techniques like sketching, extrusion, assemblies, and motion simulation. After completing the guided project, you’ll apply your skills to design a custom project of your own, combining creativity with real engineering tools. If you're passionate about robotics or interested in design, this course is the perfect place to start. To ensure every student gets personalized guidance, enrollment is limited to just 8 participants. Don’t miss your chance to build, learn, and design with confidence.
- Electronics 101: Self-Paced Summer Camp
Curious about how electronics work or love taking things apart to see what’s inside? This free, self-paced Electronics 101 Summer Camp is your perfect starting point. Learn the fundamentals of circuits, current, and components like resistors, transistors, relays, and sensors, by actually building real projects at home. From creating dimmable lights and water-level alarms to designing motion-activated night lights and sound-controlled clappers, each chapter combines clear explanations with step-by-step hands-on projects that make concepts click. No prior experience required. Just a willingness to experiment and explore. By the end of the course, you’ll even dive into Arduino programming, using real sensors and code to automate lights, alarms, and even draw pixel art on an LED matrix. Whether you’re into robotics, coding, or DIY electronics, this course builds a rock-solid foundation through practical projects and real-world problem-solving. Register for free to unlock the full course material and begin your journey into electronics at your own pace. This course is perfect for middle and high school students who want to learn how modern electronic systems are built, from the ground up. This course is free.
- Java Summer Camp
Planning to take AP Computer Science A? This summer camp is the perfect head start. Learn Java by building Space Invaders from the ground up, master object-oriented programming, graphics, event handling, data structures, and file I/O through a fun, hands-on project. No experience needed. Just code, create, and get ahead. The game is a classic 2D space shooter where the player controls a spaceship at the bottom of the screen, defending against waves of descending alien enemies. The player moves the ship left and right with keyboard input, fires limited bullets upward to destroy enemies, and must avoid enemies reaching the bottom or colliding with the ship. The player’s score and remaining lives are tracked and displayed, with the goal of surviving as long as possible while eliminating enemies. The game features multiple enemy types with varied behaviors, sprite-based graphics, and a pause/resume system. When the player loses all lives, a game over screen appears with the option to restart, and the highest score is saved between sessions using file I/O. The project combines core Java concepts such as object-oriented programming, GUI development, event handling, collision detection, and basic data structures like queues and ArrayLists to create a complete interactive experience.
