"Understanding Sustainability from the Ground Up: The World of Water" is a free Summer Science Camp that introduces students entering grades 6, 7, and 8 to the concept of sustainability by focusing their attention on water, a resource many may take for granted. Students develop a deeper understanding of the human impact on the environment while being exposed to exciting careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Students attend daily classes in natural science, engineering, mathematics, and technology, all taught by qualified instructors. Activities also include laboratory experiments, group projects, field excursions, and guest speakers who offer guidance in college preparation and career choices. On-campus housing in Foster Residence Hall, all meals, and all other camp costs are provided free of charge. For more information, visit ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camps.
