Students gain exposure to industry environments through professional aerospace laboratory visits and a Lockheed Museum tour, offering real-world insight into the field.
The DiscoverU Aerospace Engineering Summer Camp at Kennesaw State University offers middle and high school students a hands-on, immersive experience in aviation and aerospace. Participants engage in aircraft design and build projects, flight competitions, and utilize flight simulators. The curriculum includes visits to robotics labs and industry environments, such as a professional aerospace laboratory and the Lockheed Museum. Students explore the history of flight, aircraft components, propulsion systems, spaceflight, and modern aerospace technology. The camp emphasizes developing problem-solving skills, technical confidence, and teamwork abilities in a fun, structured, and inspiring university setting. No prior experience is required, just curiosity and a willingness to experiment and learn.
A typical day involves engaging in interactive labs, working on design/build projects for aircraft, participating in flight simulations, and potentially visiting specialized labs or industry sites.
This camp is ideal for students curious about aviation or those already dreaming of a future in aerospace engineering, providing an exciting introduction to potential STEM career pathways.
