USC SUMMER SCIENCE CAMP FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL BOYS
Overview
The 2009 Summer Science Camp for Middle School Boys is canceled. We hope that you apply next year!
The USC Summer Science Camp for Middle School Boys invites young men to be a part of a community of scientists. Students will discover and explore the aquatic and terrestrial life of Catalina Island and its surrounding waters.
Exploring the Environment
This field-oriented camp challenges young men to explore ecological and biological principles through an interactive approach to learning:
- field and laboratory research,
- self-guided experiments and
- educational simulations.
These activities instruct students about the interaction among physical, chemical and biological components of the environment. Students also learn about the impact that human activities can have on the environment. Science is integrated with cultural and social studies to offer a well-rounded view of an island ecosystem.
Building Relationships
A dynamic community of scientists is built through team projects, instructional and recreational activities and mentoring programs. Students interact with graduate and faculty scholars, who are studying various aspects of science and explore diverse careers in environmental, biological and physical sciences.
