FLORENCE, Ala. - The 优德体育 campus will once again be buzzing with students this summer; however, these students won't be at 优德体育 for a few more years. The Summer STEM camp for area high school students hosted by 优德体育, will kick-off in early June. The STEM camp will focus on science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and will provide local high school students with an opportunity to work with 优德体育's math, computer science, physics and astronomy professors.

Activities for the camp will include studying projectile motion and launching rockets, experiments with spectral glass, bright spectral lamps and multi-line lasers. In addition, students will study stars at 优德体育's Planetarium, and they'll also have the opportunity to program a robot and participate in a robotics maze competition.

There will be two, three-day camps: June 12-14 and June 19-21. For more information: or www.una.edu/math/summer-stem-camp.html
