SSC: Young Engineering and Science Scholars-Summer Science Camp

青年工程和科学学者夏令营(YESS)由马奎特大学工程学院和教育机会计划(EOP)联合主办，提供丰富的科学、工程和数学经验。该计划在马奎特的校园里为48名中学生提供为期4周的夏令营，外加马奎特和四所地区中学的学年活动。科学夏令营的学生通过实践探索活动和演示探索“机器人的奇妙世界”，该课程旨在为学生提供一个综合的工程学观点，强调所有工程学科共有的基础知识。学生们通过构建一个乐高/TC标志机器人来完成他们的研究和学习活动中指定的任务，从而使他们的暑期体验达到顶峰。学年的后续活动包括在慕尼黑工程学院每月举办一次“周六科学讲座”，在招募暑期科学营员的四所中学各举办一次两周一次的“学校科学俱乐部”活动。参加其中一项或两项后续活动的学生还可以获得他们选择的个人科学项目的帮助，并参加在马奎特工程学院开放参观期间举行的迷你科学博览会。暑期计划和学年计划都提供职业探索、大学规划和个人发展部分，旨在告知和激励中学生在科学、工程和数学领域的职业。***

The Young Engineering and Science Scholars (YESS) Summer Science Camp, Jointly sponsored by the Marquette University College of Engineering and the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP), provides enrichment experiences in science, engineering and mathematics. The program offers a 4-week camp on Marquette's campus for 48 middle school students, plus academic-year activities at Marquette and in four area middle schools. The summer science camp students explore "The Wonderful World of Robotics" through hands-on discovery activities and demonstrations in a curriculum designed to provide students with an integrated view of engineering with emphasis on the underlying fundamentals shared by all engineering disciplines. Students culminate their summer experience by constructing a LEGO/TC logo robot to accomplish a specified task based on their research and learning activities. Academic year follow-up activities include the monthly "Saturday Science Colloquia" at the MU College of Engineering and biweekly "School Science Clubs" at each of the four middle schools from which the summer science campers are recruited. Students who attend either or both of these follow-up activities may also receive assistance with individual science projects of their choice and participate in a mini science fair during Open House at Marquette's College of Engineering. Both summer and academic year programming provide career exploration, college planning, and personal development components designed to inform and motivate middle school students regarding careers in Science, Engineering, and Mathematics. ***
