MEALS
Students will be eating in the WVU Tech Bears Den, which offers a wide range of delicious food options.
CAMP INSTRUCTORS
Camp STEM’s instructors are excellent teachers who are experts in the fields of engineering, mathematics, the basic sciences and forensic investigation. Our instructors will guide campers through various experiments, provide detailed lectures and demonstrations, and attend field trips. All of our teachers are encouraging and will provide guidance and advice as campers explore STEM fields.
CAMP COUNSELORS
Camp STEM’s counselors are upper-class WVU Tech students who are majoring in biology, chemistry, engineering, engineering technology or mathematics. Our counselors are selected for their academic excellence and experience as camp counselors, resident assistants, or high school outreach activities coordinators.
Camp STEM Counselors live in the residence halls with you, eat with you in the Bears Den, help you with your projects and talk to you about their majors and what it’s like to study STEM fields in college.
