Did you know that at UBC alone there are 14 different types of Engineering you can study? From building bridges, to inventing cutting edge medical technology, to designing the websites you use every day- the impact of engineers is all around us! We’ve skillfully engineered a week-long adventure where we’ll dive into the different types of engineering and explore the possibilities of design and ingenuity. Join this camp if you’re not sure where to start, or if you’re interested in a broader scoping introductory experience in Engineering! This program is intended for participants entering Grade 6 and 7 in September 2024. NOTE: The same themes at the same grade level will contain the same content across all weeks. For example, Maker 2/3 (Week 1) will contain the same material as Maker 2/3 (Week 7). Girls* thrive when they have a focused space to discover, explore, and cultivate their love for science and engineering. Geering Up’s annual All Girls* Week encourages girls* and inspires the next generation of women* scientists. All Girls* camps offer the same STEM activities as their co-ed counterparts. *We use the words “girls” and “women” with an asterisk (*) to intentionally include students and stakeholders who are underrepresented in STEM fields. Cis girls/women and trans, genderqueer, or non-binary people are welcome at our All Girls* programming. For more information, visit our All Girls* page on our website.
