Do you love sports and science, technology, engineering and math (STEM)? Learn how to calculate your own field goal percentage, just like the greatest players in the NBA! This camp includes activities in Basketball, Football, Soccer and Volleyball!
This camp is hands-on experimentation that will have our campers on the edge of discovery! Learn about physics and chemistry, scientific methods all while wearing your goggles! Campers will get dirty so dress appropriately!
What's inside a moving, noise making toy? Put on your safety goggles, get out the tools and let's find out! Once you have it all apart, you will rebuild it to make something new! What will your Frankenstein look like when your done? Each camper takes home their new creation at the end of the week!
This special camp will blend some of the topics from many of our camps to allow girls to focus on the scientific method and design processes, while learning about women STEM role models and the psychology behind the gender “gap” in STEM fields.
In this exciting hands-on, day camp for high schoolers, participants will be introduced to the principles of robot design through origami -- the art of paper folding -- to prototype, ideate, and get a hands-on sense of the physics of robots. Participants will learn: (1) how to use the biological world as a source of inspiration for designing robots, and how to translate those principles into a set of engineering design goals; (2) how to ideate, prototype, and synthesize robotic devices through folded mechanisms, and how force, torque, and motion can be tuned through these structures to make robots move better; (3) Coding a microcontroller to generate motion with an RC servo-motor; and (4) how to take real-world data from a foldable robot and use physical models to improve robot performance. This week-long, hands-on, project-based approach will emphasize problem identification, brainstorming, problem solving, rapid prototyping, teamwork, and communication. The camp will culminate with a final build -- that students can program to move through the environment -- along with an exposition for parents. For more info, contact danaukes@asu.edu
The Digital Culture Summer Institute is our long-standing summer program on ASU’s Tempe campus for students in 6th-12th grades to take classes in digital media, arts, and technology. Week-long, project-focused classes are taught by faculty and graduate students.

What is the key to success for teens and young adults? Success isn’t just about doing well in school or getting into a good college. Being successful is about discovering your strengths, mastering your emotions, and adding value wherever you go. A child is only truly successful when they learn to be happy and confident with who they are.
