Science – Technology – Engineering – Arts – Math
June 10-14 and 17-21, 2013

Theme: “Explorations”
The Arts and Technology STEAM Summer Camp is coming this summer to the University of Texas at Dallas!
General registration is now open until all seats are filled! Don’t wait, there are only 50 seats per week and they are going fast! Once all seats are filled the 2013 registration will be closed for the year. Register using EZPay at this link.
This June we will introduce students to STEAM concepts like game design, virtual environment concepts, robotics, and more by providing an in-depth hands on math, science, engineering and technology curriculum through the lens of ART! This “STEM to STEAM” camp is the first of its kind at UTD, geared for A/B students who are exploring a career in STEAM related fields. Our goal is to provide a glimpse into various industries in which it is a normal day to produce a computer game, movie, a virtual world, or a digital photography piece.
This academic day-camp is open to students grades 9-12 with an strong interest in STEAM curriculum, and will meet June 10-14 & 17-21, 2013 on the University campus. Participants will receive a t-shirt and lanyard. Students may sign up for either one or both weeks. Non-refundable cost to register is $35, and cost per week is $250.
