Tech Trek provides a unique opportunity for middle school girls to experience college life while being immersed in hands-on STEM learning and mentored by female scientists.
Tech Trek is a week-long residential STEM camp designed for girls entering 8th grade, aiming to foster their interest, excitement, and self-confidence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Campers live in university dorms, experiencing college life firsthand, and engage in hands-on activities and core classes taught by female scientists. The curriculum includes diverse subjects such as Stardust Astronomy, Robotics Engineering, Bodies by Design, App Inventor, and Cyber Security. Afternoons feature a variety of workshops, and the program includes field trips to locations like the Pacific Science Center, Boeing Museum of Flight, or a US Geological Survey site. Girls also have the opportunity to interact with professional women in STEM fields, learning about their educational and career paths. The camp emphasizes hands-on problem-solving and aims to spark curiosity, placing participants on a path toward success in STEM.
A typical day at Tech Trek starts bright and early with core classes in subjects like Astronomy, Robotics, or Cyber Security, followed by a variety of workshops in the afternoon. Evenings may include special events or free time, with lights out around 10:00 p.m.
This camp is best for girls entering 8th grade who have an enthusiasm and curiosity about STEM, are solid students, and may have limited access to STEM enrichment programs.
