options for your daughter, it’s important to consider and encourage her interests, especially if she shows an interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">An engineering summer camp is the ideal environment for nurturing your daughter’s interest in STEM. An engineering summer camp like the </span><a href="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">TryEngineering Summer Institute</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> will provide opportunities to participate in hands-on design challenges, meet real-life engineers, and visit engineering workplaces to see what it would really be like to work in the field of engineering.</span></p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-4001 size-medium" src="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-Copy-of-20230709_084647-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" srcset="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-Copy-of-20230709_084647-300x225.jpg 300w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-Copy-of-20230709_084647-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-Copy-of-20230709_084647-768x576.jpg 768w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-Copy-of-20230709_084647-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-Copy-of-20230709_084647-2048x1536.jpg 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /><b>1. Because they can!</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> The stereotype that girls aren’t interested in STEM is just that, a stereotype. Girls need to be exposed to engineering early on so they can make informed decisions when choosing their career paths. Early exposure to engineering and STEM can also boost confidence, and help shape them into leaders!</span></p> <p> </p> <p><b>2. Because engineering needs more women.</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> According to the </span><a href="https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2021/01/women-making-gains-in-stem-occupations-but-still-underrepresented.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">United States Census</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, in 1970, 8% of the STEM workforce consisted of women. As of 2019, that number has only increased to a mere 27%. Despite now making up nearly half of the overall United States workforce, women are still vastly underrepresented in the STEM workforce.</span></p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-4002 size-medium" src="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2-girls-smiling-outside-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" srcset="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2-girls-smiling-outside-225x300.jpg 225w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2-girls-smiling-outside-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2-girls-smiling-outside-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2-girls-smiling-outside-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2-girls-smiling-outside-scaled.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px" /><b></b><b>3. Because engineering provides diverse career opportunities. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">The field of engineering includes several different disciplines, like mechanical, electrical, and software, just to name a few. Engineering summer camps like the </span><a href="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">TryEngineering Summer Institute</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> offer a look into several different engineering career paths!</span></p> <p><b>4.

A professional staff member will meet your student at the airport and escort them to the TryEngineering Summer Institute campus on the day the program starts. At the end of the program, your teen will be escorted back to the airport, and our staff member will remain at the airport until their flight departs.</p> <h3>Airport pick up and drop off procedure</h3> <p><strong>Booking the flight: </strong></p> <ul> <li>Arrival: On the first day of the session, anytime before noon is preferred.</li> <li>Departure: On the last day of the session, anytime from Noon – 5pm is preferred.</li> </ul> <p>If you cannot find flights at these times, please try to find one as close as possible, so we can group the pick ups and drop offs together. Once you have booked your flight, please forward the entire itinerary to us at info@tryengineeringinstitute.org. Please make sure the itinerary has the student name, date, time, and flight numbers included.</p> <p>Is your student flying as an unaccompanied minor? You will need the name, address, and phone number of the staff member that will be picking up or dropping off your student. We do not assign the staff members until camp begins, so in the meantime, you will need a placeholder. Please contact us, and we will provide the contact info for the director on-site. Then when camp begins, you will be able to call the airline and change it to the person who will be there.</p> <p>The day before the flight, the director will be in contact with you to confirm all of the flight info, and assign the staff member that will be in charge of the pick up or drop off. Then the staff member will text a photo of themselves to your student and make sure they have each other saved in their phones.</p> <p>Upon arrival, the assigned staff member will be waiting at baggage claim with a camp T-shirt and their cell phone in hand. Once your student exits the plane they can call the staff member (and you!) to meet up, grab their bags, and head back to campus in a cab or shuttle.</p> <p>Staff members will also drop off students at the airport. Students are transported by cab or airport shuttle. The staff member will help them get checked in, and check baggage. (Note: If your student is checking a bag, please be sure to send along cash for any fees that might need to be paid on the return flight for luggage. This will vary from airline to airline.)</p> <p>If your teen is flying as an unaccompanied minor, our staff member will escort them through security and wait with them until the plane takes off. If your student doesn’t need an escort, then our staff member will remain at the airport until the plane takes off. If you have any questions regarding this procedure please feel free to give us a call anytime.

On a guided behind-the-scenes tour, conducted by a retired Apollo propulsion engineer who helped get astronauts to the Moon, we will visit Mission Control, the Space Vehicle Mock-up Facility where our Rice camp engineering students will get to see current astronauts train and the historic Rocket Park to see the Saturn V moon rocket. We will have access to Space Center Houston and all of the artifacts and displays that trace US achievements in space and how engineers and scientists have contributed. This summer our Rice camp for engineering will be even better!</p> </div> <button type="button" class="pum-close popmake-close" aria-label="Close"> X </button> </div> </div> <div id="pum-2999" role="dialog" aria-modal="false" aria-labelledby="pum_popup_title_2999" class="pum pum-overlay pum-theme-1461 pum-theme-default-theme popmake-overlay click_open" data-popmake="{"id":2999,"slug":"local-tours-and-attractions-usd","theme_id":1461,"cookies":[],"triggers":[{"type":"click_open","settings":{"extra_selectors":"","cookie_name":null}}],"mobile_disabled":null,"tablet_disabled":null,"meta":{"display":{"stackable":false,"overlay_disabled":false,"scrollable_content":false,"disable_reposition":false,"size":"medium","responsive_min_width":"0%","responsive_min_width_unit":false,"responsive_max_width":"100%","responsive_max_width_unit":false,"custom_width":"640px","custom_width_unit":false,"custom_height":"380px","custom_height_unit":false,"custom_height_auto":false,"location":"center top","position_from_trigger":false,"position_top":"100","position_left":"0","position_bottom":"0","position_right":"0","position_fixed":false,"animation_type":"fade","animation_speed":"350","animation_origin":"center top","overlay_zindex":false,"zindex":"1999999999"},"close":{"text":"","button_delay":"0","overlay_click":false,"esc_press":false,"f4_press":false},"click_open":[]}}"> <div id="popmake-2999" class="pum-container popmake theme-1461 pum-responsive pum-responsive-medium responsive size-medium"> <div id="pum_popup_title_2999" class="pum-title popmake-title"> Local Tours and Attractions USD </div> <div class="pum-content popmake-content" tabindex="0"> <hr /> <div class="clear"> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3000" src="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/USD_trees-popup-300x262.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="262" srcset="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/USD_trees-popup-300x262.jpg 300w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/USD_trees-popup.jpg 500w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />With nonstop sunshine and the beaches, strands, shopping and more just a stone’s throw from campus, our USD TESI students will really have a wonderful summer.

This is a sample schedule based on our prior program. While not all sessions will be exactly the same, this is reflective of the wide range of activities that take place during the program.</p> <h2 style="text-align: center;"> PROGRAM OVERVIEW</h2> <div id="Sample Program Overview and Sample Daily Schedule" class="rightcol"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-2272 size-medium alignnone" src="https://tryengcamps.staging.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/About-1-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/About-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/About-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/About-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/About-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/About-1.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /><br /> </div> <p>The Institute offers a comprehensive curriculum that provides fun and challenges for students at every level of experience. The program is ideal for students who are new to engineering or STEM activities as well as those who have taken engineering classes. The program allows all students to explore engineering in a team environment and consider career and degree options in the field, while forging friendships with others interested in engineering and technology applications.</p> <p>Coursework is hands-on and project-based. Academic modules have been created specifically for this program by STEM specialists at IEEE and are designed to step up in both engineering difficulty and skill-building as the program progresses.</p> <p>Class is from 9am-4pm daily and lecture-style classes do not exist. Engineering principles are introduced and reinforced through hands-on work. Inside of each module there are academic underpinnings: design principles, expected outcomes, and the opportunity for students to discover what is possible. Those are detailed in our <a class="popmake-curriculum-overview" href="#">Curricular Overview</a>.</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The TryEngineering Summer Institute curriculum has been carefully designed to build the student experience over the ten-day period, with earlier activities honing skills needed in later tasks. Collectively, these activities touch on several fields of engineering, including electrical, mechanical, civil, aerospace, chemical, computer, and others. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Coursework is project-based and hands-on. We design, engineer and build all day. We try new things, we learn new skills and the program builds upon itself. We go on an academic journey, building confidence, knowledge, experience and ability through the 5 C’s: Communication, collaboration, critical thinking, curiosity and creativity.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Below are examples of what is covered in the coursework. You can see the academic underpinnings, the design principles, the expected outcomes, and the opportunity that exists for the students to discover what is possible inside of each challenge, module, and project. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another main focus across the entire ten-day stretch is our program-long Design Challenge which is built on Design Thinking. Design Thinking is a creative process developed at the d.school at Stanford University, which helps students design meaningful solutions to problems. Students will experience the full cycle in an intro hands-on challenge and then they will step through the process of identifying a problem, developing a “how might we…” statement, defining the problem, designing a solution, and creating a prototype. Teams can choose to enter the “shark tank” and develop a pitch for their solution.</span></p> <h2 style="text-align: left;">Sample Weekly Schedule</h2> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Day One:

Each suite consists of four singles, each pair connected by a bathroom, as well as a lounge and kitchenette. It is by far the coolest set-up in our program! Make sure to bring plenty of snacks because you have a fridge and microwave! Hanging out in the larger fun social spaces is amazing.</p> <p><strong>Student Center</strong></p> <p>We love cruising over to the student center or quad in the evenings. There is a grill there, labs, places to play games, pool, foosball, movies, TVS; all the same great amenities the college kids enjoy during the year. Come check out why USD keeps on winning best campus… by living there…</p> <p>At USD, TryEngineering Summer Institute students enjoy the most beautiful campus in the country according to the Princeton Review. With sculpted gardens, sunny views and spectacular modern dorms, this is a wonderful experience. All of the amenities you would expect and so much more!</p> <p>Students will have access to all available on-campus facilities such as the fitness center and swimming pool and in the evenings there’s tons of resources to explore and enjoy. This campus lives up to the hype in every way!

Collectively, these activities touch on several fields of engineering, including electrical, mechanical, civil, aerospace, chemical, computer, and design think.</p> <p>Coursework is project-based and hands-on. We design, engineer and build all day. We try new things, we learn new skills and the program builds upon itself. We go on an academic journey, building confidence, knowledge, experience and ability through the 5 C’s: Communication, collaboration, critical thinking, curiosity and creativity.</p> <p>Below are examples of what is covered in the coursework. You can see the academic underpinnings, the design principles, the expected outcomes, and the opportunity that exists for the students to discover what is possible inside of each challenge, module, and project.</p> <div class="overview"> <h2>Design/build: Design Think Team Challenge (All session)</h2> <h3>Design Thinking Challenge</h3> <p>Design thinking is a creative process developed at the d.school at Stanford University that helps you design meaningful solutions to problems. Student will experience the full cycle in an intro hands-on challenge and then they will step through the process of identifying a problem, developing a “how might we…” statement, defining the problem, designing a solution, and creating a prototype. Teams can choose to enter our own home-grown “shark tank” and develop a pitch for their solution.</p> <h2>Digital Fabrication Challenge</h2> <h3>Light Sculpture Challenge</h3> <p>Students will be introduced to CAD as well as how 3D printers work. Application: Design, 3D print, assemble and test a light sculpture. Teams will create a light show applying what they learn from basic circuitry, breadboarding and microcontrollers and simulate in Tinkercad Circuits. Next they will use CAD to design the sculpture (or body) for the electronics that will enhance the light show.</p> <ul> <li><b>Skill Build: Intro to CAD in Tinkercad and Fusion 360 Overview.</b><br /> Student will choose which package they want to use for the light sculpture challenge. Students will get an intro to Tinkercad Circuits as well so they can simulate their light show.</li> </ul> <h2>Electrical & Computer Engineering</h2> <h3>Smart Car Sensor Challenge with Sensors</h3> <p>In this activity we’ll focus on automotive and mechanical engineering and students build from scratch a fully operative smart car and remote control. Students will work with instructors to understand the mechanical principles around steering systems. Students work in teams of three to construct and build a smart car and then edit and upload the underlying code to make functional adjustments in car operations. Build a fully operative smart car and remote control to complete an obstacle course. Explore Arduino code by modifying it to control the function of the car and add sensors to help it best navigate the obstacle course automatically. To complete this challenge, students need to learn basic circuitry and breadboarding.</p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Skill Build: Basic Circuitry and Breadboarding</b><br /> Student explore simple circuits through breadboard wiring of LEDs and resistors. Soldering and advanced soldering included.</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Skill Build: Intro to Micro-controllers</b> Students will expand on prior activities which established an understanding of electrical circuitry and breadboarding to explore microcontrollers and their applications. Students will control a display and then have a choice of either developing a weather station or programming a recognizable song using passive buzzers. Students build a strong understanding of flexible coding, component integration, and problem-solving.</li> </ul> <h3>AM Radio Challenge with Soldering</h3> <p>Build a fully operational AM radio from a kit. To complete this challenge students need to learn how to solder.</p> <ul> <li><b>Skill Build: Soldering a functional circuit: </b>Students set up and practice soldering, and then move on to soldering a functional circuit.</li> </ul> <h3>Drone Challenge with Soldering</h3> <p>Build a fully operational drone from scratch to carry a payload to a specific destination. The day ends with students expanding, augmenting, improving and strengthening their drones so they can participate in battles, races, and other exciting feats of engineering facing off with one another and against the clock. Imagine using the 3D printer to make a battle arm to attach to your drone (and making sure it is counter-balanced and flighworthy) then facing off against your roommate who has created a drop-tank to engage your drone!</p> <h2>Chemical Engineering</h2> <h3>Berry Solar Cell Challenge</h3> <p>Students will create a working solar cell that mimics the process of photosynthesis and they will measure the performance of the device based on power output.</p> <h2>Mechanical Engineering</h2> <h3>Hydraulic Robot Arm Challenge</h3> <p>Students will learn the basics of robotics and hydro-mechanical power. They will assemble a wired controlled robot arm. Students will test the arm by conducting various tasks. This activity introduces hydraulics and hydraulic machinery. Students assemble and prepare a hydraulic robot arm that controls six axes of varied movements. Students are challenged to use lever controllers to lift various items with suction mechanism as well as using gripper to transport a range of products. As a group, students simulate a construct a conveyor belt with multiple robot arms to transport multiple materials down a mock production line. Teams also compete to see which can stack the highest number of dice using only the arm.</p> <h2>Aerospace Engineering</h2> <h3>Glider & Wing Design</h3> <p>Students will work in teams to explore aircraft and wing materials, shapes, and structures to maximize the glide slope of a glider. They will create an optimal wing design that will propel their glider the furthest distance. In this activity we will consider the principals of flight, including lift and drag, and students will design, build and test (from scratch) a glider that will carry the payload of an actual shoebox (which is fairly weighty indeed) the farthest.</p> <h3>Rocket Launch</h3> <p>In this activity we’ll focus on aerospace engineering and how space flight has been achieved from an engineering vantage point. Students will work with instructors to understand the forces acting on a rocket, Newton’s Laws, and other principles and challenges of an actual space vehicle launch. Students work individually to construct and test launch a rocket using a basic kit which they customize. Then based on their results, they will re-engineer their rocket and retest for improved accuracy and altitude. Students will build an altitude tracker and use for the competition.</p> <h3>Special Apollo 11 Celebration (video/speaker)</h3> <h2>Civil Engineering</h2> <h3>Bridge Engineering</h3> <p>Students will focus on civil engineering and learn various concepts for bridge design and how they handle large loads. Students will construct bridges of ever increasing complexity of materials and durable strength. These structures will hold more and more weight… what makes them work the best?</p> <h2>Mars Space Colony: IEEE Standardization Game</h2> <p>A Game of Standardization is designed to teach about technical standards and standards development while developing team and negotiation skills. Topics include the importance of standards to industry, fundamentals of standards development, and a case study on standards. Players participate as members of standards working groups, incorporating roles that reflect the economic, political and technical realities of standards development. In this activity we will explore the importance of engineering standards and work to explore challenges engineers might face in the development of a space colony on Mars.</p> <p>This is a role playing exercise which surfaces the challenges of agreeing to standards.</p> <h2>Engineering Survey for the Future & University Applications, Essays, and Resumes</h2> <p>Students will take an engineering survey for the future to better understand what engineering disciplines exists, what they mean, what the majors, careers, and opportunities are and, crucially, and with which one (s) the students individually would most align. If Engineering is a possible future major and or career, this module is vital.</p> <p>Students also prepare for applying to a university by exploring tips and guidelines for picking the right school, what classes to take in high school, the application process, the development of extra-curricular activities, clubs and the beginning of essays and resumes. We will explore recommendations for development practice essays, and resume guidelines for pre-university students. Students will have an opportunity to develop a preliminary resume that they can expand on over the years.</p> <h2>Engineering Ethics Debate</h2> <p>Students explore how ethics is involved in many of the engineering fields. They will consider some of the critical decisions engineers need to make when designing new products and processes.</p> </div> </div> <button type="button" class="pum-close popmake-close" aria-label="Close"> X </button> </div> </div> <div id="pum-2162" role="dialog" aria-modal="false" aria-labelledby="pum_popup_title_2162" class="pum pum-overlay pum-theme-1461 pum-theme-default-theme popmake-overlay click_open" data-popmake="{"id":2162,"slug":"dorm-life-vaughn-college","theme_id":1461,"cookies":[],"triggers":[{"type":"click_open","settings":{"extra_selectors":"","cookie_name":null}}],"mobile_disabled":null,"tablet_disabled":null,"meta":{"display":{"stackable":false,"overlay_disabled":false,"scrollable_content":false,"disable_reposition":false,"size":"medium","responsive_min_width":"0%","responsive_min_width_unit":false,"responsive_max_width":"100%","responsive_max_width_unit":false,"custom_width":"640px","custom_width_unit":false,"custom_height":"380px","custom_height_unit":false,"custom_height_auto":false,"location":"center top","position_from_trigger":false,"position_top":"100","position_left":"0","position_bottom":"0","position_right":"0","position_fixed":false,"animation_type":"fade","animation_speed":"350","animation_origin":"center top","overlay_zindex":false,"zindex":"1999999999"},"close":{"text":"","button_delay":"0","overlay_click":false,"esc_press":false,"f4_press":false},"click_open":[]}}"> <div id="popmake-2162" class="pum-container popmake theme-1461 pum-responsive pum-responsive-medium responsive size-medium"> <div id="pum_popup_title_2162" class="pum-title popmake-title"> Dorm Life at Vaughn College </div> <div class="pum-content popmake-content" tabindex="0"> <hr /> <div class="clear"> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-2164" src="https://tryengineeringinstitute.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/down-time_volleyball-1-300x212.jpg" alt="" width="301" height="180" /><span style="font-weight: 400;">Students’ home away from home at Vaughn is a three-story, suite-style</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">residence hall</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">.
