Imagination

Campers working on making a digital camera.

Campers working on building drones with an instructor helping.

In Imagination you will explore the world of science, technology and engineering… Not by watching, but by DOING! You will learn about the engineering design process as you build your own devices and participate in hands on activities exploring the many different aspects of engineering. Rising 7th or 8th graders are invited to apply. Preference will be given to first time applicants.

Imagination will host three weeklong sessions. The second and third week will feature an electrical and computer engineering (ECE) project such as building a video game console or digital camera, including learning to solder. The first session will allow you to build, fly and take home a drone. ECE-related camps have both day and residential options. The drone camp is residential only. Programming will take place from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm on the Blacksburg campus of Virginia Tech.
