Pharmaceutical Sciences activities were themed around Spectroscopy: building a paper spectrophotometer for their cell phone and developing a calibration curve. Forty-three students from across the state of North Carolina joined the programs of engineering, clinical research, and pharmaceutical sciences for a variety of fun learning activities. The high school STEM Camp was held July 12–14.
Students explored engineering and health science programs through hands-on activities such as the pharmaceutical theme around separation: ultimately learning to handle an air-displacement pipet and load DNA onto a gel, a clinical research taste test, an amusement park ride activity, nanobug track, and an egg shoot. Crystal DarkĬPHS and the SOE hosted forty-eight middle school students for a STEM Camp June 14–16. Opportunities like this provide engagement and exposure they would not receive otherwise. Through hands on encounters their eyes are opened to a collaborative experience. Students were encouraged to adapt, problem solve, and be creative. These camps helped develop and strengthen a variety of skill sets like critical thinking, innovation, and exploratory learning. The STEM Camps provided students the opportunity to focus on hands-on learning with real-world applications. The collaborative nature of programming bolsters Campbell’s commitment to interprofessional education.
CPHS also hosted two Discovery Days for high school students. The College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences (CPHS) and the Campbell University School of Engineering (SOE) offered two summer STEM Camps to middle school and high school students.
