IUP STEAM CAMP June 16-20, 2025

Join our amazing summer experience at IUP from June 16-20, 2025 for students finishing grades 8-11. You'll use the IUP STEAMSHOP facility to design, laser cut, and 3D print parts to build your own simple mobile robot. 

Learn about drone operation, safety and ergonomic through use of exoskeletons, and virtual reality simulation. You will add digital sensors and program controls for your mobile robot. On the final day, there is a mission that combines your drone skills with operating your robotic car.

Camp runs Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 3:30 pm. Students work with faculty and staff from across the campus in a truly interdisciplinary effort spanning Mathematical and Computer Sciences, Geography, Art and Design, and Safety Science. Students should attend all 5 days. There is a $150 fee to cover materials and lunch (scholarships available, see details in the application).

All Faculty and staff posses the qualified clearances specific to working with minors. Camp activities, materials and instruction are supported through the Southwestern Pennsylvanian New Economy Collaborative-Build Back Better Regional Challenge grant and Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
