is a hands-on outreach program that provides the opportunity to explore coding, scientific computing and the impact of engineering to high school students with limited access to Computer Science programs. This year's summer camp focused on robotics and featured
a culminating project in which students created disaster response "rescue" robots that navigated obstacles to search for a heat source that represented a survivor.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">This summer, 75% of program participants came from underrepresented minority backgrounds and 60% of the students were female. Most of the students came with little or no prior experience in coding,
electronics or robotics. By the end of the program, students gained increased confidence in their ability to tackle programming and robotics problems and developed a greater understanding of the effects of computation and engineering on their daily lives.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
