Robot racing, body scanning and company tours are just a few activities Edinburg High School students participated in during the “Ideas to Reality: How Engineering Can Change Your Lives” summer camp, held at The University of Texas-Pan American June 14-16.
The summer camp pilot program is a collaborative effort of the Edinburg schools’ CATE (Career & Technology Education), TMAC and UTPA Engineering Department.
“This is our pilot project and we’re very excited,” said Henry Oh, director of TMAC. “We have put this together with our experience with private industries and hopefully the kids will learn what the necessary skills are to pursue their ideal careers.”
TMAC South Central partnered with CPS Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency to help implement the nation’s first energy efficiency program for mid-size manufacturers.
