    Dear Parents/Guardians:

    Applications are now open for our 2016 CyberSTEM and Intermediate CyberSTEM camps:

    1. CyberSTEM Camp: For Girls Entering Grades 7-8 in Fall 2016

    Dates: July 18-22, 2016

    This 5 day experience provides hands-on activities focused on STEM and cybersecurity topics. Attendees will learn and apply basic concepts of programming, forensics, cryptography, and program management from a series of gaming, modeling, and simulation activities, which explore the interconnections of science, math, technology, and computers. This is the fourth year that this camp is being offered, and will cover the same content as the 2015 camp.

    Find more information & online application here: http://cyber.umd.edu/education/cyber-stem

    2. Intermediate CyberSTEM Camp: For Girls Entering Grades 9-10 in Fall 2016

    Dates: July 25-29, 2016

    This 5 day experience provides hands-on activities focused on STEM and cybersecurity topics. Attendees will learn and apply basic concepts of programming, computer forensics, cryptography, steganography, system vulnerabilities and program management from a series of gaming, modeling, simulation activities and hands-on exercises, which explore the interconnections of science, math, technology, and computers. Participants did NOT need to attend our CyberSTEM middle school camp in order to be eligible. This camp covers similar content areas as CyberSTEM camp for 7th and 8th graders, and allows for a deeper and more in-depth exploration of the subject matter.
