Record number of scholarships awarded for WSU engineering camps Record number of scholarships awarded for WSU engineering camps

Wichita State College of Engineering summer camps began Monday, June 5. More than 325 children in fourth through 12th grades are enrolled in 16 weekly camps being held during June and July. Camps focus on robotics, coding, applied engineering design, biomedical engineering, aerospace engineering and cybersecurity.

Though camps typically cost $200 to $350 a week, a record 100 campers are attending on scholarship, paying only $10 each. Scholarships are funded by private camp sponsors, which this year include Airbus, Textron Aviation, Boeing and Booz Allen Hamilton. The scholarships target children who might otherwise not get exposure to the field of engineering.
