The main goal ofthe program was to provide young women and underrepresented minority high school studentswith a laboratory research experience and inspire them to enter college and pursue STEM degrees. Each summer, students from local high schools were selected to participate in laboratoryresearch as scholars under the supervision of a mentoring graduate student and faculty member.Each team composed of two YSs and their graduate mentor tackled problems innanomanufacturing and made significant contributions to ongoing research projects.

By allowing students to engage in real-world activities aligned withgrade-appropriate standards, camp participant is often able to not only pursue their interests inSTEM but also to gain confidence and efficacy in the process.Self-efficacy is an important concept within education due to the influence that a student’sperceptions of their abilities have on other related concepts like motivation, goal orientation, andpersistence.

This instructional time included traditionallectures as well as field trips, laboratory experiments, and active learning activities. The homebase for the course was an active learning classroom with features such as pod seating, movabletables, and whiteboards. Additionally, the intention was for students to visit various campuslocations, view and participate in laboratory experiments, and learn more about the life of aresidential student.Initially, the course development focused on understanding the student population of the class;high
