A unique aspect of the camp is the weekly focus on a different engineering specialty, coupled with virtual lunchtime meetings with Manhattan University engineering alumni who share insights into their professional work.
The Manhattan University Science & Engineering Summer Camp introduces young learners to the science of engineering through hands-on activities and projects. Campers explore five core engineering specialties: mechanical, electrical, civil, chemical, and environmental engineering. Each week focuses on a different discipline, allowing participants to delve into what these fields offer and how they contribute to improving the world. Through engaging projects, students develop essential engineering skills, foster creativity, and gain a deeper understanding of various engineering careers. Campers have full access to Manhattan University's classrooms, engineering labs, and library, providing an immersive university experience. The program aims to spark curiosity, build new skills, and help campers discover new hobbies while making lasting friendships.
On a typical day, campers meet with their teacher and work on a specific activity related to the engineering theme of the week. During lunchtime, they meet virtually with a Manhattan University engineering alumni who explain their work.
This camp is ideal for middle school students in grades 5-8 who are curious about science and engineering and eager to explore different engineering disciplines through practical, hands-on projects.
