Summer Science Adventures

Since the summer of 2004, the College of Engineering has hosted or co- hosted science and engineering camps for K-5 elementary students.  The programs are different every year.  Most include introduction to the various science and math concepts used in the different types of engineering majors offered at LSU.  All of the camps have included a trip to LSU to explore labs and meet scientist and engineers on campus.  For more information, contact Summer Dann at sdann1@lsu.edu.

Camp dates for 2010: TBD

Location:  LSU Campus, Week 1, co sponsor Girl Scout Troop 354
