STARBASE CT STEM Camp

STARBASE CT is a five-day STEM-based academy funded by the Department of Defense in collaboration with the CT National Guard. Participants explore various STEM fields through various collaborative investigations. The students use the scientific method to conduct experiments in chemistry and physics, make observations, and analyze data through graphing and comparison to draw conclusions about the world in which they live. They also make use of technology in the form of a high-profile CAD program and 3-D printing. Students are challenged to utilize the knowledge they gain to engineer unique solutions to real world issues.
