NSU's Destination Science camp will be June 23-27

Northwestern State University's School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics will host Destination Science Camp June 23-27. The camp will offer a comprehensive experience with workshops in anatomy, physiology, microbiology, chemistry, physics, drone technology, veterinary technology and natural science. 

The camp is geared towards students age 10-14 and not recommended for students who have not completed the fourth grade. Nine-year-olds heading to fifth grade will be eligible to attend. 

Campers will be exposed to topics in a variety of fields of science, work with various technologies used in research, interface with faculty in the School of Biological and Physical Sciences and learn through games and activities. 

The cost is $125 for each student with proceeds going to the School of Biological and Physical Sciences Endowment to support the sciences at the university. Checks can be made payable to ASM NSU on the first day of camp. 

Drop-off will be at 8 a.m. in the lobby of Bienvenu Hall with pickup at noon in Bienvenu Hall. Accommodations for later pick up can be arranged.
