The A. James Clark School of Engineering of the University of Maryland at College Park, with financial support from The Patuxent Partnership and SoMD 2030, will host a free summer camp program at the University System of Maryland at Southern Maryland.

The deadline to apply is May 31, 2025. Apply here.

Registration is open for two different camps:

The APP-AI summer camp is for high-school students with demonstrated background in coding and a strong interest in the application of artificial intelligence in machine learning, computer vision, image generation/recognition, and robotics.

The STEM summer camp for future problem solvers is open to high-school students who are interested in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields of study. It will provide a venue for students to learn mechanical design, electronics, and coding. It will teach engineering and math skills, as well as collaboration and teamwork, and will aim at developing these diverse skills to solve problems and encourage innovation.

The camps are open to students who attend high schools in Calvert, Charles, and St. Mary’s counties.

When:

APP-AI Summer camp: July 14 – August 1, 2025, M-F 9am – 3pm

STEM summer camp for future problem solvers: July 21 – August 1, 2025, M-F 9am – 3pm

The camps will be held at the USMSM Southern Maryland Autonomous Research and Technology (SMART) Building at 44219 Airport Road in California, MD
