Design your own reality!

Computer Science and Engineering Camp for Girls

In this exciting and engaging experience, campers will be introduced to virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR): technologies that transport the user to an exciting new world.

This five-day, in-person camp is tailored for girls but is open to participants of all identities. It will give participants an opportunity to explore how to become a designer of these new technologies using ideas rooted in computer science and engineering.

Campers will have the chance to work alongside talented engineers who are making direct advancements in these technologies, as well as experience how VR/AR can be used to enable new applications and uses. Ultimately, they will discover how science and computational thinking enable these technologies as they learn the foundational techniques behind-the-scenes and learn to program their own VR/AR applications.
