Science in the Summer

July 8, 2015

Science is more than theory and lecture.

Science is fun. Science is hands-on. Science is about tinkering, about rolling up sleeves, about solving problems with a little noggin power.

NIU STEM Outreach and other STEM departments host exciting, informative and interesting summer camps that offer not only knowledge and skills but a look at what the future could hold for students currently in middle school and high school.

By the time they return to their hometown classrooms his fall, more than 300 campers will have explored concepts in science, technology, engineering and math. They will have learned about research and its applications. They will have glimpsed in-demand careers.
