University of Alabama Department of Computer Science, Summer Camps:
This summer, the Department of Computer Science at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa will host a series of computer science camps for middle school and high school students. We welcome students from Alabama and throughout the United States, as well as international students from around the world. We provide a week-long day (commuter) camp for middle school students, and two-week camps for high school students with both day and overnight options available. Our fun and educational summer tech camps cover a range of computer science topics such as game programming and robotics.
- Experienced & Qualified Instructors
Our tech camps are taught by a University of Alabama faculty member and three Ph.D. students (who have extensive experience in teaching Computer Science in high school; one assistant also has a PhD in Education and is pursuing a second PhD in Computer Science).
- Facilitators to Assist Students
Undergraduate students will serve as paid facilitators. In addition to the primary instructor, there will be at least 3 facilitators in the room at all times to assist students with questions during interactive sessions.
- Day & Overnight Options for High School Students
High school students may choose to commute if they live within the vicinity of our campus, or they may reside on campus in our new dormitories. These dorms typically have four private bedrooms that are shared within a common suite.
Special social activities will be planned in the evenings for dorm students. Both male and female University of Alabama camp staff members will be living on-site to assist students with any needs.
