Summer camp schedule highlights science, technology, art and communication

From coding and 3D modeling to the convergence of science and art, Auburn University at Montgomery will offer a wide range of summer learning opportunities for middle school and high school students.

AUM’s summer camp lineup includes the following:

• A free STEAM Camp (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) July 7-25 that blends scientific inquiry with expressions of creativity. Supported by a grant from the Alabama State Department of Education, the camp is open to the first 70 7^th-12^th grade students from the following schools:

• • Bellingrath Middle School
  • Brewbaker Middle School

• A free Video Game Storytelling and Character Development Camp May 30 and June 2-6 that enables students to develop a storyline for a video game inspired by a field trip to several River Region locations. Campers will use traditional drawing tools and Adobe Illustrator to create a main character for their game.
• A free Digital Illustration Camp June 9-13 in which students will create work with Clip Studio Paint.
• A “COMCOM” Computer Science & Communication Summer Academy that explores different aspects of computer science – coding, robotics and 3D modeling – each week and also offers opportunities to build confidence in speech and debate. The camp is $200 per week.
