Summer programs offer the opportunity for Techbridge girls to continue exploring their interest in science, technology and engineering through fun hands-on projects and career exploration. Summer programs are only open to girls participating in Techbridge after-school programs and Techbridge alumnae.
Summer 2009 programs included:
- Mythbusters
Our girls tested different science myths to see if they were true or not. They learned about chemistry through explosions and discovered different types of renewable energy.
- America's Top Robot
Girls explored the science behind robotics and created runway worthy robots from start to finish. They learned about computer programming, experimented with mechanical building, and put their robot to the test as they compete to make America's Next Top Robot!
- Project ROV
Girls learned the technology of underwater exploration. They built their own underwater robot or ROV (remotely operated vehicle).
