Widener's Engineering Summer Camp was developed by engineering faculty at Widener to introduce high school students to the field of engineering in a nurturing, noncompetitive, "hands-on" environment. Students experience four half-days full of hands-on activities, computer workshops, demonstrations, laboratory exercises, and presentations, all while having fun!
