About this camp

The Georgia Tech Science, Technology, and Engineering Program (STEP) Camp is a free, immersive two-week engineering camp for high school students. Participants learn the engineering design process by tackling NASA-inspired challenges, such as designing planetary exploration missions and building Mars rovers or operation-based drones. Students work in teams with support from Georgia Tech faculty and student mentors to apply engineering concepts through design, building, testing, and problem-solving. The program aims to build confidence in students' abilities and expose them to potential pathways in STEM fields. The camp culminates in a poster session where teams present their final designs to peers, family, and sponsors.
