This program offers a unique opportunity for middle school students to engage in interdisciplinary STEAM projects focused on climate and sustainability directly on the MIT campus.
The MIT Full STEAM Ahead Into Summer program invites middle school students to a three-week immersive day camp on MIT's campus. The program focuses on climate and sustainability, offering hands-on learning experiences that blend engineering, art, and project creation. Students will engage in activities such as building model CubeSats to explore space and Earth data, designing and creating musical instruments from PVC pipe to sonify climate data, and constructing wind turbines to understand renewable energy. The curriculum emphasizes iterative design through projects like building and testing two-stage water rockets, encouraging students to experiment, learn from failures, and continuously improve their designs. Participants will gain practical skills in STEM, develop creative problem-solving abilities, and foster an understanding of climate and sustainability challenges through interdisciplinary projects.
Students will engage in hands-on learning with engineering, art, and project creation, constructing ideas of their own design, with lunch and materials provided.
This program is ideal for Massachusetts middle school students interested in exploring climate and sustainability through creative, hands-on STEM and art projects.
