We are at the brink of kick-starting the 2016 FLATE’s
robotics camps, but it’s not too late to sign up for a
camp of your choice (if
you haven’t already!). We still have some spots AND scholarships available for
eligible students. The five day camps are poised to challenge middle
and high school students to to
learn about Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics and their applications
in everyday high-tech operations.
This year’s schedule and list of camp offerings include:
June 20-24: Introductory EV3 Robotics Camp
for Middle School GIRLS ONLY (Scholarships Available)
June 27-July 1: Introductory EV3 Robotics Camp for ALL Middle School students
July 11-15: Intermediate EV3 Robotics Camp for ALL Middle School students
July 25-29: Engineering Technology Camp for High School Students
(Scholarships Available)
The Suncoast Credit Union Foundation will provide
scholarships for girls from low-income families to
attend the All Girls camp.
To apply for a scholarship fill out the registration forms that are currently
posted on the FLATE Camps
page. Scholarships are also available for students interested in enrolling
in the high school camp. Students from low income families, and/or those
participating in a free and reduced lunch program are eligible to apply for the
high school camp scholarship which is being offered through a grant from Hillsborough
County. More information on the high school camps, applications and scholarship
are posted online on the FLATE
Camps website. Thanks also to the Tampa Bay Chapter of the Society of
Manufacturing Engineers for contributing $500 to FLATE robotics camps.
In addition to the robotics camp
in Tampa, FLATE is hosting camps at St. Petersburg College in St. Petersburg,
FL, at Marion Technical Institute in Ocala, Peterson Academy in Jacksonville,
North Florida Community College in Madison and other locations as well.
Information on the camps at St. Petersburg College in Pinellas County and
Marion Technical Institute are posted on the FLATE website under “Other
Robotics Camps,” scroll to the bottom of the page to get
more information about the application process and dates of the camp.
