. Page 24.493.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2014 Engineering Camp: a residential experience designed to build academic capital in pre-college studentsAbstractEngineering Camp is a one-week on-campus residential program that exposes pre-college (post7th -11th grade) students to engineering disciplines through introductory seminars,demonstrations, laboratory experiments, and design challenges. The program improves students‟awareness of the breadth of engineering and emphasizes the benefit of developing skills inSTEM. The camp is offered in grade-based parallel sessions geared to the audience, and camperscan return in subsequent summers. Importantly, Camp provides a

Engineering Plus, as well as STEM education courses for pre-service teachers through the University’s CU Teach Engineering program. Additionally, she manages and mentors graduate and undergraduate engineering fellows who teach in local K-12 classrooms through the Integrated Teaching and Learning Program’s NSF-funded TEAMS initiative, is faculty advisor for the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), and on the development team for the TeachEngineering digital library. Dr. Zarske’s primary research interests are on the impacts of project-based service-learning on student identity, recruitment, and retention in K-12 and undergraduate engineering.Ms. Madison J.
