8 RGOH Students Receive UCF Summer Award 2023
6/1/23, 4:00 PM
Eight deserving RGOH students received a prestigious summer research award. Five of them will have the opportunity to attend UCF's Camp Connect I and three of them will be able to participate in UCF's Camp Connect II.
Students from all over the country apply but only a select few are able to participate each year. Going into our third year we are excited that this year (5) students attended Camp Connect I and (3) students attended Camp Connect II.
Camp Connect I & II are week-long day camps that introduce students to a variety of engineering disciplines such as Electrical, Computer, Industrial, Mechanical, Aerospace, Civil, Environmental, Construction, and Computer Science. Students participate in activities, informative presentations, and exciting lab tours while getting a chance to meet the faculty and staff.
Camp Connect I targets rising 8th through 11th graders with a goal of increasing underrepresented communities (i.e. women, Hispanic, African American, Latino/Latina, American Indian/Alaskan native) in engineering and computer science. Students must be a minimum of 13 years old and maintain a high GPA to be considered a potential candidate. Camp Connect II targets individuals that have completed Camp Connect I and are seeking a deeper hands-on experience within the various engineering fields.
