CAMP DATES & LOCATIONS
June 12-17, 2022 - Lawton Academy

The Cameron University Engineering & Applied Mathematics Summer Academy is a 6-day, 5-night residential camp experience for 30 high school students from the state of OKLAHOMA. The 2022 academies will be hosted at a Lawton Cameron campus and Duncan Cameron campus and the FISTA in Lawton. Students will be housed on campus for the Lawton academy, and in a local hotel for the Duncan academy.

High school students will study and experiment with coding and computer programming. Students will learn fundamental computer science with Brown University's Pyret language and development environment. Following the CS fundamentals and the engineering design process, students will then apply their knowledge to the Lego Mindstorms Robot Inventor kit to research, design using 3-D printers, test, and debug their robots. The final project will include a design competition of the completed robots. The robots will compete as they navigate an obstacle course. Academy participants will also engage in non-STEM activities to encourage team building and self-assurance throughout the week. As the week ends, students will reflect on their team design process and their own personal growth journey during the academy. The students will present their week to fellow academy participants, family, faculty, sponsors, industry, and the community.
