1 The Atlee MSiC Engineering Camp… Eileen Malick – Atlee High School

2 Are you an Engineer? Good at Math & Science? Creative? Love Solving Puzzles? Know how things work? Want to help the world? Consider Engineering as a Career! Answering “Yes”

3 The Idea… The Atlee MSiC Engineering Camp is a week-long camp for middle-school students to learn about several branches of engineering by applying math and science skills. ScienceEngineeringTechnology Math APPLICATION +

4 Branches of Engineering 1. Aerospace Engineering 2. Electrical Engineering 3. Mechanical Engineering 4. NEW! Nuclear Engineering 5. Software Engineering 6. Systems Engineering

5 Why Nuclear Engineering? Nuclear Engineering Nuclear Power Plants Submarines Aircraft Carriers X-rays Harness the power of nuclear energy & radiation!

6 Triad of Rooms Application Math and multimedia lessons in a computer lab. Q & A session with actual Engineers in the field Building and engineering a new item each day (Lab). Yellow Room Green Room Blue Room

7 Camp History… 2008 20092010 2011 Pilot: 1st year of the Atlee MSiC Engineering Camp after MSiC 21 st Century Fellows Engineering Program 2 nd Installment of the Atlee MSiC Engineering Camp 21 st Cent. Fellows -Fractals Pilot: VCU Video Game Programming Camp 2 nd Installment of the Video Game Programming Camp at Club Ozone 21 st Century Fellows for Nanotechnology VMSC Programs that Work Award A grant from MSiC and ACEC allows us to create a STEM Academy for Middle School for Free. Camp Inventions for Elementary School (STEM)

8 Future Plans? More Camps BSA Engineering Elementary School STEM BSA Robotics Elementary School Comp Sci Propagating more ides of the STEM

9 Why do we do it? Top-paying jobs for the Class of 2011

10 Top-paying jobs for 2011 1. Chemical Engineering 2. Computer Science 3. Mechanical Engineering 4. Electrical Engineering 5. Software/Computer Engineering 6. Industrial Engineering
