The camp offers a free, immersive university-affiliated experience with hands-on robotics and AI training, including access to SDSU labs and faculty.
The SDSU Robotics Camp is a free, week-long summer program designed for middle and high school students to gain hands-on experience in engineering and computer science. Participants engage in core activities such as assembling and programming MBot Mega robots, learning to fly and program drones, and exploring coding in Scratch and Python. The curriculum also covers artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and renewable energy concepts. Students apply their skills in practical challenges, including a robotics competition. The camp integrates with the SDSU campus, offering tours of professional engineering labs like the SMILE Lab and the Aerospace Engineering Lab, and opportunities to interact with university faculty and guest speakers. Beyond technical skills, the program emphasizes problem-solving, leadership, and teamwork through activities like catapult design and outdoor team-building exercises.
A typical day involves a blend of lectures and practical design challenges, with hands-on activities like programming robots and drones, and opportunities to tour SDSU engineering labs and interact with faculty.
This camp is ideal for middle and high school students curious about coding, robotics, AI, and engineering, who enjoy hands-on learning and team-based problem-solving.
