The program offers a unique blend of hands-on technology exploration, personal development, and mentorship from both high school and college students, all within a university setting.
The Cal State LA STEM Achievers Summer Program is a two-week immersive day camp designed for middle school students who have not previously participated. The program, led by the Pathway Programs Office, aims to inspire interest in STEM fields and future college majors. Students engage in hands-on learning experiences with cutting-edge technologies such as virtual and augmented reality, 3D printing, robotics, and coding. The curriculum encourages participants to develop digital media products and learn how technology can address social issues. Beyond technical skills, the program incorporates personal development activities, high school and college mentoring, and career exploration with industry professionals. The goal is to empower students from under-resourced communities, build problem-solving skills, and expose them to diverse STEM career possibilities.
A typical day involves instruction from credentialed STEM teachers, interactive projects, and presentations by industry professionals, with mentorship from Cal State LA undergraduate and graduate students.
This program is best for middle school students from under-resourced communities interested in exploring STEM subjects and potential career paths in a hands-on, engaging environment.
