Upcoming Camps

Check back in early September to register!

AI & Robotics Camp

Date: Oct. 11
Time: 9 a.m.-12 p.m.
In-Person Option: Grades: 9-12 | Cost $150
Virtual Option: Grades 9-12, K-12 teachers, undergraduate and graduate students and faculty | Cost: $100

Experience a hands-on introduction to the basics of data science and artificial intelligence. Available both in-person and online.

Holiday Programmable Robotics Camp

Dates: Dec. 29-30
Time: Morning session 9 a.m.-12 p.m. | Afternoon session: 1-5 p.m.
Grades: 3-8
