抖阴pro offers a Summer Civil Engineering Experience for rising high
school juniors and seniors from the St. Louis region.
Students work with civil engineering faculty and student mentors to learn about an array of civil engineering sub-disciplines through modules and hands-on activities. Attendees gain insights into structural, environmental, water resource engineering and more. They also acquire skills that will help them succeed in a collegiate engineering program. In addition, students get to spend time as a SLU student, enjoy the campus and meet other students interested in civil engineering.
Note: This is a day camp, which runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. No overnight accommodation is provided.
Questions? Reach out to Chris Carroll, Ph.D., chair of civil, computer and electrical engineering, at chris.carroll@slu.edu.
