Students build and take home real Arduino-based robots, rather than working with pre-built kits, and learn from college student instructors from top universities.
STEMkidz offers hands-on robotics and coding summer camps for students in grades 6-12 (ages 12-18). The program focuses on building real skills in technology and problem-solving through engaging projects. Students can choose between a half-day coding camp, where they learn Python programming and computer basics, or a half-day robotics camp, where they build and code Arduino-based robots using C++ and explore sensors and obstacle detection. A full-day option combines both coding and robotics for a comprehensive STEM experience. The curriculum incorporates college-level material, simplified for middle and high schoolers, and emphasizes understanding how technology works beyond just writing code. Students gain critical thinking, creativity, and confidence through practical application and collaboration.
A typical full day includes a morning coding session from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, followed by an afternoon robotics session from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
This camp is best for middle and high school students (grades 6-12) who are interested in gaining foundational and practical skills in coding and robotics, regardless of prior experience.
