When it comes to STEM field exposure, early and often is a good approach for young students.
Michigan Tech is hosting middle school students from Baraga and L’Anse this week as part of an Engineering Exploration summer camp.
This is the second of three week-long science camps requested by the Keweenaw Bay Ojibwa Community College STEM Outreach Department and funded by a 4-year US Department of Education STEM education grant.
The students are covering a variety of engineering topics each day at the Great Lakes Research Center and on the campus of Michigan Tech.
Another summer camp will be held in July that will focus on mathematics and computer applications, concluding with a Quiz Bowl.
