Northeast State Community College announced registration for the Girls Rule! Technology Camp is open.
The Technologies Division will host a week-long camp from June 12-16 that gives fifth and sixth grade girls hands-on learning opportunities in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) fields.
Girls Rule! Technology Camp immerses young learners in some of the largest-growing career paths, such as computer science, engineering, electricity, industrial technology, machine tools, aviation, and entertainment technology.
From 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., participants tackle instructor-led activities that involve state-of-the-art equipment in Northeast State’s Technology Education Center (TEC) in Blountville.
“Girls that are provided a strong foundation in STEM are equipped with a unique skill set that continues to feed their creative minds and build problem-solving skills,” said Dean of Technologies Division Dr. Donna Farrell. “Our camp will not only provide them a wonderful foundation, but also build self-confidence while introducing them to STEM opportunities. The girls will learn individually as well as a working team. Our hope is when they leave us at the end of the week, they will have built great friendships, experienced hands-on STEM opportunities, and have fun while doing it.”
Registration is $190 and includes lunch and snacks. Spots are limited. Scholarship opportunities are available for qualified students in the registration form.
Register an incoming fifth or sixth grade girl by visiting NortheastState.edu/GirlsRuleTechnologyCamp.
