This year’s STEM program will be held in three sessions: June 7-12 for rising 8th-9th graders, June 14-19 for rising 10th graders and June 21-26 for rising 11th graders.
The Academy’s Summer STEM Program is an overnight academic camp designed for rising 8th-11th grade students in good academic standing who have an interest in math and science.
The STEM Program gives students the opportunity to experience real-life applications of math and science principles through hands-on practical learning. Students will learn from distinguished Naval Academy professors in world-class lab facilities that provide a unique learning environment outside the traditional classroom. The Academy’s current students, known as midshipmen, help run the Summer STEM Program and act as camp counselors and tutors to students.
Approximately 375 total students from around the U.S. wil attend STEM.
