Engineering Camps

This camp needs students that are currently in the 11th grade to attend
a FREE engineering camp at the University of Houston . We need more
African-American students. If you need further information please contact
John Matthews, 713-743-4226. This camp is coed.
Students in this camp have been known to get summer jobs for college just
for being in this camp. Help students help themselves. As you may recall,
my son attended this camp and look at his career. This camp helps students
develop good study habits and learn about the various facts of engineering
careers. The program needs at least 15 more students or they will lose
funding for next year's camp.
Please help us keep this camp alive. Students are welcome from anywhere in the United States. Transportation is not provided, the camp is free. We will pick up and return out of town students to the bus station, train station or airport for free.

SEMAA at Fernbank > -> Free Program Grades (k-12)
The NASA Science, Engineering, Mathematics, and Aerospace Academy
(SEMAA) began in Cleveland in 1993, at the urging of then U.S. Congressman Louis Stokes. Concerned about the low level of academic achievement for the young students in his district, the Congressman advocated the creation of a unique program that would focus on the areas of mathematics and science. In the years since its inception, the NASA SEMAA program has emerged as a nationally renowned leader in the efforts to increase the participation in and retention of historically underserved K-12 youth in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
Established as a joint venture between NASA Glenn Research Center and Cuyahoga Community College, the program has grown from a single site to a national organization with 23 sites in 16 states and the District of Columbia.
