Come see how your math and science talents can pave the way for a rewarding career in engineering!

Deciding on an engineering career can be difficult, especially if you’re not sure exactly what being an engineer involves. Whether building blast resistant buildings, producing clean energy, designing components for automobiles, or a wide variety of other engineering jobs this program was developed to give high school juniors and seniors first-hand knowledge of what engineers actually do. The “Intro” course will help you understand how mathematics and the sciences relate to engineering, and if engineering is a career choice for you.

Explore Engineering During "Intro" you’ll learn what engineers really do and the tools they use. We'll introduce you to engineering’s various disciplines through hands-on activities and team design competitions while you make new friends and enjoy a taste of campus life. Design Projects During "Intro" you'll have plenty of time to meet new friends and work on design projects. Cheer on your peers while you learn about a future career in math and science.

The Program You’ll spend your summer camp mornings learning about engineering disciplines from leaders in their fields, while rubbing shoulders with some of the brightest students in the nation. You’ll gain practical engineering experience during lab and industry visits in the afternoon, and test your skills in friendly student competitions during the evening. Your introduction to Missouri S&T and the world of engineering will include plenty of challenges and a lot of fun.

Attendees will have an opportunity to select four programs for visits and hands-on experiences.  An overview of each discipline will be given on the first day, then you can choose the four programs you'd like to explore more in-depth. Choose from:
