Experience
the excitement of the HEALTH SCIENCES. Explore careers in healthcare
and biological science while you learn
about the complex relationship between
patients and the entire medical team.
You’ll learn
about the communicability of disease
and infection and how our body’s
natural defenses work to fight against
them. And you’ll learn how to
conduct patient interviews and evaluations,
and begin the process of actual diagnosis.
Roll
up your sleeves as you explore the
PHYSICAL SCIENCES.
With members of your team, learn how
to build and program your own robot
to perform simple tasks. Explore the
variables and forces of velocity, gravity,
and motion and build a transport device
to effectively protect an object during
free fall. In the process, you’ll
gain insight into scientific principles
at work in careers ranging from engineering
to aerospace technology.
Explore technological
advances with APPLIED SCIENCES.
Learn how scientific principles are
used in everything from manufacturing
to forensic science. You’ll gain
an understanding of how DNA is extracted,
observed, and recorded for identification
and solving crimes. Hone your critical-thinking
skills as you apply the scientific
method of formulation and testing a
hypothesis during a hands-on workshop.
