From the information email: We are writing to inform you of an exciting opportunity for academically talented high school girls—GAMES Camp! Girls’ Adventures in Math, Engineering, and Science (GAMES) is a week-long residential camp for rising 9th-12th grade girls, which focuses on different areas within Engineering. This year, we will offer 5 camps: Structures, Robotics, Bioengineering/Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Materials Science. Our camps are full of advanced curriculum and hands-on, large-scale projects during the day, as well as fun social activities, like karaoke, swimming, and bowling, at night.
WHO: Girls only! Rising 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade
WHAT: a week-long residential camp which focuses on different areas within Engineering. This year, we will offer 5 camps: Structures, Robotics, Bioengineering/Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Materials Science. WHEN: Summer

MIT Ocean Engineering Experience
The Ocean Engineering Experience ( O EX ) is a weeklong academic program for students entering 11th or 12th grade. Students gain experience in mechanical and ocean engineering through designing and building marine vehicles and structures. Students are submerged into real world scientific problems that require teamwork, science and engineering to solve. The program culminates in a demonstration open to the MIT community and the general public.
Topics covered during the week include: forces and moments, basic electric circuits, DC motors, engineering design and basic engineering measurement and analysis. Instruction is provided by MIT graduate and undergraduate students, research staff and faculty with experience in robotics, ocean engineering, mechanical engineering and other related expertise.
OEX takes place on the MIT campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Participants are housed in dormitories and use MIT laboratories and other facilities to complete their work. The cost for the full week, including room and board, is $1,400. Partial tuition and travel scholarships are available.
WHO: Coed, rising junior and seniors
WHAT: 8 day residential ocean engineering program
WHEN: July 9-16, 2011
WHERE: MIT SeaGrant College, Cambridge, MA
