These camps give students a chance to explore exciting career pathways through hands-on rotations in five innovative labs: Aerospace Technologies, Networking/Cybersecurity, Renewable Energy Technology, Emerging Automotive Research, and Automation and Robotics—each led by current CTE students.

Camps will run from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM on the following dates: June 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 23, 24, 25, 30 and July 1. Students will only attend one session.
