The STEM Summer Camp Experience 2025 exposes students through hands-on experiments to how engineers apply math, science, and engineering principles to improve people’s lives. This summer day camp, taking place over 3-weeks at Jefferson’s East Falls Campus, is for 6th-9th grade students in the Greater Philadelphia Area.
Students will be introduced to emerging technologies in data analytics, 3D-printing, logical programming, and logistics through hands-on experiments. Using projects that are appealing to their interest, the campers will experience how engineering is applied in our everyday lives.
Some of the projects will include:
- Using data science to analyze the performance of your local sport teams: Philadelphia Eagles and the Phillies.
- Learning to design a piece to specifications using the special software Solid Works © and producing it using 3D printing.
- Performing a 10-week supply chain planning to procure, produce, and delivery a product and its sub-components.
- Learning to write a code to obtain the batting average of your favorite Phillies player, or to which Eagles’ player has more passing yards.
