Pre-Engineering Robotics and Java Programming Summer Program

Robots! Students experience the thrill of mastering basic concepts in robotics and computer programming, while solving challenging problems.

---

Pre-Engineering Robotics and Java Programming Summer Program is a special 6-day summer program designed to give high school students with an interest in science and engineering an opportunity to explore engineering as a career.

Sessions will include hands-on activities on robotics using Lego Mindstorm NXT kits and Java programming with Alice. During the camp, there will be a field trip where participants will observe engineers working on interesting projects, such as space research. There will be visiting engineers to share their experiences with us. St. Mary’s staff will provide information about the university applications and financial aid. Students will have campus tours and many fun activities at our campus.

Students may apply if they are currently enrolled in the 10th or 11th grade in high school and have interest in engineering.

This camp is supported and funded by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.

It is free for accepted students! Because of the size limit of the camp, please submit your applications at your earliest convenience.
