The camp provides a unique opportunity for middle school girls to immerse themselves in a supportive, all-girls university setting with hands-on STEM activities and mentorship from women in STEM fields.
Stockton University Tech Trek is a week-long residential STEM camp for rising eighth-grade girls, a collaboration between Stockton University and the American Association of University Women (AAUW). The program aims to immerse girls in a world that empowers and encourages them to consider futures as scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and computer specialists. Campers choose from various STEM options, including astronautics, artificial intelligence, medicine, robotics, and coding, to build their four-day experience. Activities include hands-on workshops such as creating lip balms in cosmetic chemistry, building rain barrels, designing model hot air balloons in aerospace engineering, and engaging in cybersecurity workshops addressing cybercrime and identity theft. The camp also incorporates art into STEM through workshops like "Designs of Nature: The Fibonacci Sequence," where girls create artwork based on mathematical formulas. Field trips to locations like the Stockton Atlantic City campus allow for marine science studies, including seining for marine life and beach sweep awareness campaigns. The program emphasizes hands-on problem-solving and provides opportunities to meet and learn from women in STEM fields, fostering interest and confidence in these areas.
A typical day involves hands-on workshops in chosen STEM fields, such as coding, robotics, or chemistry, with opportunities for field trips and interactions with women role models in STEM.
This camp is ideal for rising eighth-grade girls interested in exploring various STEM fields and gaining confidence in pursuing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics careers.
